3, 4, 5, or 6 octaves handbells - late intermediate
SKU: CG.CGB731
Composed by Emily Li. Christmas. Master Ringer. With 3, 4, 5, or 6 octaves handchimes. Handbell Score. Chorister's Guild #CGB731. Published by Chorister's Guild (CG.CGB731).UPC: 749193016763.
This original composition is inspired by the Chinese poem "Night Thoughts" written by Li Bai of the Tang dynasty (701-762). The sixteenth-note opening figure represents a quiet stream with a reflection of the moon in the water. The quiet, meditative nocturnal atmosphere gradually transforms into a fantasy with a quick and energetic section. The music recaps majestically with triplets and continues to build to a strong and final statement.
