Description

After your handbell choir finishes playing the Prelude, their involvement in leading Worship doesn’t have to stop! This reproducible resource provides valuable ideas for using handbells and handchimes throughout the worship service. Included are ways to add sparkle and meaning to hymns, calls to worship, processions, scripture readings, prayers, fanfares, and other responses. Much of this volume is linked to the Revised Common Lectionary—Lectionary Year B, though some selections are appropriate for all Lectionary Years. Scripture and hymn-tune indexes make worship planning easy. Volumes for Lectionary Year A and Lectionary Year C are also available. Choose from a print version, a digital version on CD-ROM, or a fully digital version with PDF/MP3 files. The print version is fully reproducible, while the digital versions include PDFs of all music, plus PDFs and TIFFs of congregational parts for easy insertion into worship bulletins. A demo CD recording is included with both the print and CD-ROM versions. Permission is granted for the original purchaser to duplicate materials as needed for handbell and handchime ringers as well as other instrumentalists.

Voicing: 3, 4, or 5 octaves handbells or handchimes
