With mallet rolls and clicks, finger snaps and thumb damps, this well-known theme is fun to ring! Sure to lighten any concert but especially around Halloween! 11531194 3-5 Octave Handbells . .L3+ 4.25 Fire Dance Michael T. Blanton. This high-spirited original work will be exciting for those who enjoy quick tempos! Much of the bass is malleted; however, several measures have bass, A3 and up, rung at tempo. Dynamic changes are thrown into the mix which will make this quite exciting for the audience. We suspect youth groups will love performing this one! 11384148 5-7 Octave Handbells . . .L4 4.25 Haunted House Scott Pfitzinger. This unique piece is a musical walk-through of a haunted house. In addition to using a variety of techniques, such as thumb damps, mallet rolls, mallet work, and shakes, spooky sound effects like whispering, screams, or even an evil laugh are encouraged as you play. Creative and fun - sure to be a hit. 10911598 3-6 Octave Handbells . .L2+ 4.95 HeartBeat Brian Childers. A thrilling original composition that takes ringers and audiences on an electrifying journey. Beginning with two malleted eighth notes, the heartbeat grows and morphs as more bells are added, building to the excitement of a powerful B section. Eventually, the heartbeat becomes a gently-rung part of a beautiful melody soaring above an underlying triplet pattern. The B section makes another appearance before the A section returns, racing towards the finish, but not before a surprise flatline, leading to a spine- tingling and breathtaking conclusion. 11595305 3-7 Octave Handbells opt. Handchimes & Auxiliary Bells . . . . . . . . .L4+ 6.95 In The Hall Of The Mountain King Edvard Grieg/arr. Kathleen Wissinger. Enter the majestic mountain domain in this lively rendition of Edvard Grieg's iconic In the Hall of the Mountain King from his Peer Gynt Suite No. 1. True to the orchestral original, this piece starts out soft, dark, and wary, then gains in confidence, volume, and speed until it is almost frantic at the end. Perfect as a showy little "palate cleanser" in a school or community concert! 11361788 3-5 Octave Handbells . . .L3 5.00 Intro To Also Sprach Zarathustra Richard Strauss/arr. Ron Mallory. Strauss' 1896 tone poem has become inextricably associated with spaceflight since its use in the 1968 science-fiction film "2001: A Space Odyssey." This arrangement simplifies the rhythmic notation for easier learning by beginning- and intermediate-level handbell choirs without diminishing the musical power of the piece. 34 measures. 11161786 3-7 Octave Handbells . . .L2 3.95 Le Carnaval Des Animaux Camille Saint Saens/arr. Sondra K. Tucker. Eight handbell arrangements from the famous Carnival of the Animals skillfully arranged for handbells and handchimes. The unique character of this music is expertly presented here with excellent arranging choices that allow the pieces to be playable and musical. A sure- fire winner for an advanced handbell ensemble for both players and audience alike. May be presented as a set or individually. 10692649 5 Octave Handbells Introduction et Marche royale. . . . . . . .L4 5.00 10692650 4-5 Octave Handbells Poules et coqs, Tortues, L'Elephant . . . . . . . . . . . .L4 5.00 10692651 5 Octave Handbells Aquarium . . . . . . . . . . . . .L4 5.00 10692652 5 Octave Handbells Voliere . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .L5 5.00 10692656 5-6 Octave Handbells Fossiles . . . . . . . . . . . . . .L4 4.50 10692654 5 Octave Handbells Le Cygne . . . . . . . . . . . . .L3 5.00 10692653 5-6 Octave Handbells Finale (Abridged) . . . . . . .L4 5.00 The Mysterious Stranger Holy Mysteries John C. Dare. Ideal for six or seven ringers, the haunting melody moves throughout the two-octave range. A slow tempo and a thin bass line make the bass clef part feasible for one ringer and very easy for two ringers. Although completely workable for G4 to F6, the optional C4 and F4 add richness. Bell changes for E5 and B5 plus many eighth notes put it at Level 2. A total of 55 measures, this piece is written in C minor. 11630721 2 Octave Handbells opt. C4, F4 . . . . . . . . . . . .L2 3.75 Picture Pieces For Young Ringers Kirtsy Mitchell. Young ringers have fun while learning basic ringing skills. This reproducible book contains six pieces ranging from Level 1 to Level 2. Each piece paints a musical "picture" of its title: Birthday Cake; Processional; Clouds: Puppets Parade; Three Monkeys Playing and Scary Things. (Pieces are sub-titled for sacred performance as well). 10076237 3 Octave Handbell Collection - Reproducible . . . . . . . . .L2 20.00 Scherzo Matthew Compton. Composed for a middle school handbell festival, this is a fun, easy-to-learn piece that all will enjoy.
