CGBD124 It Came Upon the Midnight Clear (reproducible) - Duet or Trio
Description
Here is “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear,” an arrangement of Richard Storrs Willis’ beautiful Christmas tune CAROL. This flexible arrangement may be played as a handbell solo on bell tree or from the table, or as a handbell duet or trio. The lullaby-like accompaniment is restful and rocking, and includes a section reminiscent of twinkling stars. The bells required for the solo or duet range from D5 through C7, with the trio version using the full 3 octave range. In the duet and trio versions, there are no shared bells between ringers. Also available are optional parts for string ensemble (2 violins, viola, violoncello, and contrabass) including a string reduction for electronic keyboard. Three different mp3 accompaniment tracks are available: piano, string ensemble, and piano and strings.
