Composed by Mitchell Eithun. Arranged by Mitchell Eithun. Handbell choir music. Handbell score. Beckenhorst Press #HB700. Published by Beckenhorst Press (BP.HB700).
Arranged for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir and optional 3 to 5 octaves of handchimes. Level 3. Open chords and haunting parallel fourths and fifths open this harmonically-rich setting of the well-known Lenten tune. The rhythmic motion slowly increases before a powerful key change moves the piece on toward its once-more haunting conclusion. A beautiful choice for any service during Lent.
