This classic spiritual is infused with rhythmic

infectious spirit that is sure to energize ringers
and listeners alike.

I've Got Peace like a River

the tunes
PEACE LIKE A RIVER and DONA

quiet reflection. Opening and closing bass
chords take the lead, with gentle syncopation
supporting the melody in the treble. Chimes are
used effectively in the middle before leading

choice for worship or concert.

with an optional flute or C instrument. The bass
staccato notes may be performed with mallets or

eighth note rests allowing for a crisp, enthusiastic
presentation. This well-known classic is perfect
for worship and for concerts. The C instrument

In Christ There Is No East or West MCKEE
arr. Michael Mazzatenta.
This familiar spiritual (hymn tune MCKEE) has
been creatively arranged in a bold and lively
setting with an expression mark that reads
"Joyful fun!" The engaging melody is mostly
rung with a few well-placed stopped techniques
and echos. As the piece develops, it slows
to a broader, elegant rung section with full
resources. This is a fresh, solid, and accessible
title to add to your group's repertoire.

Jesus Is a Rock in a Weary Land
arr. Mark Arnold.
This creative and fun arrangement of the familiar
spiritual begins with mallet clicks that set the
tone for the piece. The melody appears over a
rhythmically malleted bass line with a bit of a
blues or jazzy feel. Lots of syncopations make
this a learning opportunity for most Level 2
groups, but the end result will be a fun piece for
concert or worship.

Let Us Break Bread Together
arr. Hart Morris.
This setting of the familiar spiritual begins
with singing bells and offers optional flute,
clarinet, and cello. From a mellow introduction
and first verse, the piece moves to a more
climactic second verse, quoting an occasional
phrase from BREAD OF LIFE before returning
to the quiet mood of the beginning. The piece
incorporates ringing and singing bells, shake,
and LV techniques.
