This exciting original work is full of intensity, with constantly changing time signatures that will challenge ringers, while the catchy melody will intrigue and engage listeners. The driving malleted bass gives way to a slower, softer section that remains in 4/4 but loses none of the energy of the opening. The initial material returns as the piece builds towards its end on an explosive final chord for a finish sure to send your audience to their feet! 11405391 5-7 Octave . . . . . . . . . . . . . L5 4.95 Laudation—Brenda Austin. This exciting original shows that music that is not overly difficult can still be moving and meaningful. Rhythmically challenging in some areas, with smoothed-out rhythms in others, there is enough repetition to make learning this piece a satisfying challenge. Written in A minor and with a driving tempo, this work is suitable for almost any venue: school, concert, church, or festival. 11418022 2-3 Octave . . . . . . . . . . L2-L3 5.25 11418023 3-5 Octave . . . . . . . . . . L2-L3 5.25 Let It Be (Handbells Rock Series)— John Lennon & Paul McCartney/ arr. Kevin McChesney. One of the greatest rock anthems of all time, the Lennon-McCartney classic "Let It Be", comes to handbells in this arrangement by Kevin McChesney, proving once again that handbells rock! The optional vocal solo (included) adds yet another dimension, or encourage your audience to sing along! Key of G Major. 58 measures. 10489084 3-6 Octave . . . . . . . . . . . . L2+ 5.95 Let's All Ring Disney Classics— arr. Bill Ingram. Chime and bell ringers will have fun playing the short arrangements of the five classic Disney tunes in this collection. Staccato and echo techniques, among others, add interest and challenge for beginning players. Titles: It's a Small World; Let's Go Fly a Kite; Mickey Mouse March; The Siamese Cat Song and Toyland March. 5990449 2-3 Octave . . . . . . . . . . L1-L2 5.50 My Favorite Things—Richard Rodgers/ arr. Douglas E. Wagner. From "The Sound of Music", this popular song remains one of our 'favorite things' for handbell concerts. A crowd- pleaser for sure! 1841642 3-5 Octave . . . . . . . . . . . . . L2 6.75 On the Road Again— Willie Nelson/arr. Tammy Waldrop. Willie Nelson's all-time country favorite comes to handbells, and in the hands of this veteran arranger, it's an instant must-have classic! It's accessible to just about any choir and can be played in many situations and venues. Your audience will surely be tapping their feet and singing along when you ring this one! 11418032 3-5 Octave . . . . . . . . . . . . . L2 5.95 Pirates of the Caribbean— arr. Kevin McChesney. "Shiver Me Timbers!" It's an arrangement of the movie music from Disney's blockbuster hit, "Pirates of the Caribbean"! Mallets on tabled bells provide pulse and intensity to the texture as the music dips and swells like ocean waves. A perfect piecer for a fun concert. 10020097 3-5 Octave . . . . . . . . . . . . . L3 4.50 Popcorn—Gershon Kingsley/ arr. Amy Maakestad. This synth-pop instrumental appeared in the late '60s on an album featuring the Moog synthesizer and became an instant hit! This delightful arrangement features two-octave handchimes and optionally one octave of Boomwhackers! Thumb damps, marts, and malleted notes add to the fun. A separate score for the chimes and Boomwhackers is available. This will be an absolute delight for ringers and audiences alike! Due to copyright restrictions, this title can only be delivered in print format. 11405403 5-6 Octave . . . . . . . . . . . . . L3 5.95 11405404 Boomwhackers & Chimes Parts . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2.95 Puttin' on the Ritz—Irving Berlin/ arr. Hart Morris. This arrangement of the Irving Berlin big band hit from the late 1920s is faithful to the original, dressed in a very ritzy yet elegant musical fashion. Brilliant use of a variety of stopped sounds, jazz improv-style sections in the lower bells, riffs, and jazz-style accented notes are just some of the highlights. The last section has a double-time feel and will have your audience on their feet by the end. Bass and drums are optional but recommended. Truly a "must-ring" for the advanced handbell ensemble! 11405407 5 Octave . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . L5 4.95 11405408 Full Score . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

L2 4.25 Tales of the Great Water—Sandra Eithun. The word "Michigan" originally referred to the lake itself, and is believed to come from the Ojibwe word michi-gami, meaning "great water." This piece is an homage to the beautiful lake and its rich history. 1. Kinship - The Gathering is a tale of friendship conjuring up images of a place where cultures merged and people from all over gathered. 2. Shoreline Poem is a tale of longing; so many who settled near the shores of the Great Water once had a life in another place. 3. Boundless is a tale of sailing - an adventurous romp on the water awaits our hearty sailors in this tale. The delightful stories are enhanced with optional flute or violin, drum, chime tree, and suspended cymbal. 11417026 4-7 Octave . . . . . . . . . .

Kathleen Wissinger. This jaunty arrangement of the TikTok sensation will be crowd pleaser for sure. Two incompatible scores are included in the folio: score A is Level 2 for two octaves, and score B (more complex) is Level 3 for 3-5 octaves. A quick tempo in cut time is the main reason for the higher rating. Neither score has bell changes, bell sharing, or techniques, so they can be played without tables or pads. Additional performance notes are in the score. 11361566 2 Octave or 3-5 Octave w/opt. Vocal, Percussion . . . . L2-L3 5.00 Wonderful Christmastime— Paul McCartney/arr. Ron Mallory.
