Return to Eight-Handbell Collections – “Surprisingly Easy”™

Larry and Carla’s Third “Surprisingly Easy”™ Eight-Bell Hymn Collection

Our third (!) collection of “Surprisingly Easy”™ eight-bell hymns is like our first and second collections. A new twist is that this collection has several somewhat longer (as in three-page) arrangements, so now you can more easily select pieces to match the time you need to play in your church service.

You can play this music with two four-in-hand ringers… or you could have four ringers with two bells each. Beginning ringers will have fun with these, and will have an easy way to learn to play multiple bells, too. And when you master them, you can think about moving on to learn the more advanced versions that take the music a bit further! You can find those versions at https://www.choraegus.com/ring/eight-bell-music/.

A total of eleven bells are used to play the entire set (G5, A5, Bb5, B5, C6, D6, Eb6, E6, F6, F#6, and G6), so if you’re playing the entire book, everything will fit on just one table!

Practice tracks for the pieces in this collection are available separately with the individual scores.

”Dual-Range”™ Score Package: $30.00 US

Purchasing this 8-bell collection gives you permission to print and maintain up to four copies for your handbell group (plus the accompaniment score, if part of the purchase) – so you only need to pay once. Purchase also gives permission for performance, broadcasting, live-streaming and video-sharing online. See our licensing agreement for full details, and please remember to mention the title and arranger of the piece on video-sharing sites, social media and any printed materials such as concert programs.
