l How Can I Keep from Singing—arr. Sondra
Tucker. This beautiful folk medley setting employs
bells and chimes and features a violin solo. The
tune
ENDLESS SONG takes the lead and combines
with two other original melodies. In the final stanza
the tunes join to create a beautiful trio effect.

essential, as is balance among the parts to allow all
three melodies to shine through.

How Firm a Foundation—Karen Lakey
Buckwalter. This lively arrangement is sure to set
toes a-tappin'! Bold open fifths underscore first a

or as an opener or closer at your next concert! An
optional violin part included in the score.

advanced choir's repertoire.

Jesus, Lover of My Soul—arr. Philip L. Roberts.

ABERYSTWYTH is often paired with this
Charles Wesley hymn text. It is a hymn of hope and
provides comfort in turbulent times. Echoes and

tone. Appropriate for worship, memorial services or
concert, this setting is dedicated to the vast number
of souls lost due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Jubilate—Dmitry Bortniansky/arr. Julie Sitt. This
beloved chorale is set for handbells in a series of
variations that make this a wonderful piece for
school, church, and festival. The varied techniques
and terraced dynamics make it a great teaching
piece. There are no bell changes except for the key
change, and no shared bells.

Jubilate Deo—Sondra K. Tucker. This triumphant
original work for handbells and optional organ is the
perfect selection for festivals, worship, and special
occasions. The regal tune
CHRISTE SANCTORUM is
heard on chimes in the middle section before the
majestic conclusion. Both the handbell part and the
organ part stand alone as solo pieces. Optional cuts
are indicated for flexibility in performance.

Just a Closer Walk With Thee—Traditional/
arr. John A. Behnke. This jazzy little setting of the
well known hymn begins with a catchy opening
which draws us into the rhythmic melody. Your
bass ringers groove to their malleted bass
accompaniment. The middle section provides quiet
contrast with use of handchimes. Then comes a
surprise key change and everyone rocking through
the melody one last time before a Louis Armstrong
“O Ya” ending. Ringers and audience
alike will both love it.

Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence—arr. Ron
Mallory. A creative, bold setting with a big, broad
sound, this arrangement will challenge ringers and
audience. Two parts are noticeably more advanced
than the others in difficulty, though they are soon
mastered once the rhythms are established. For
Advent or Lent.
11167861 3-6 Octave . . . . . . . . . . L3+ 5.50
Let All Things Now Living—arr. Linda R. Lamb.
The traditional Welsh tune
THE ASH GROVE gets a
lively calypso setting in this arrangement which
expresses the excitement of the text. A more
tranquil, hymn-like second verse leads back to
a dance-like ending. Another text for this tune,
Sent Forth by God's Blessing, makes this a useful
arrangement throughout the church year. Level II.

Let Everything That Breathes Praise the Lord
—Cathy Moklebust. This delightful, joyful original
composition is based on the words of Psalm 150.
The main theme is introduced by handchimes and
singing bells, which quickly moves to an exciting,
driving rhythmic section. A more lyric midsection
provides contrast before continuing to a majestic
ending. Various handbell techniques, multi-meters,
key changes, and optional percussion add to the
excitement. A wonderful, inspiring addition to
concert or worship!
