CGB392 Amazing Grace - 3-6 octaves
Description
Set in a rather poignant manner, the first two stanzas are followed by an optional third stanza combining "Amazing Grace" with "Taps." The work goes on to two more stanzas, concluding with all the bells of heaven pealing. The work then closes as quietly as it began, with malleted bells, fading into eternity. Appropriate for worship services, funerals, and concerts, the work is especially meaningful for memorials for military persons.
Voicing: handbells; 3,4,5 or 6 octaves
Arranger: H. Dean Wagner
Level: 4
