Composed by William Gardiner. Arranged by Mark R Lewis. Classical,Folk,Sacred,Traditional. Score. 8 pages. Mark R Lewis #875766. Published by Mark R Lewis (A0.1284591).The text for "Take Up Thy Cross" was written by the hymnwriter Charles W. Everest and has several tunes associated with it. The tune used here is variably referred to as Germany or Gardiner, after the most common arranger. The tune was actually composed by the famous German composer Beethoven but the most common arrangement of the tune was by William Gardiner in his volumes known as Sacred Melodies. The tune is also used by some schools for their alma mater song. The tune is also used for the hymn "Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life."
This arrangement of the tune is for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir and utilizes handchimes extensively. It also starts with the singing bell technique. While the changes between bells and chimes are a little abrupt and there are steady eighth note patterns through much of the piece, it is not too difficult and is comfortably in the 3 difficulty range.
Season: General
Range: 3-5 octaves.
