Intrepid—Jason Krug. 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!

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.

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!

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.
