We have practice tracks for most of our unaccompanied small-ensemble handbell scores (up to sixteen bells). For a small cost, you get a piano-plus-click-track audio version of the score. This provides a way for your group to hear what they’re playing with a guiding metronome.
For our “dual-range” scores, there are separate practice tracks for the G5-based and F5-based scores in the package. We suggest purchasing the music first so you can decide which practice track you want to get, because making a purchase later will cost the same.
Each click track starts two bars before the first full bar of music. Further, the first beat of each bar is accented. This makes it easy (okay… easier!) for your ensemble to synchronize with the score.
If you need to adjust the playback speed when you use our practice tracks, you’ll need to get an app that makes this possible. There are quite a few of these, so you can select the one that works most comfortably for you.
Here’s how our practice tracks sound:
