SKU: HP.2954
Arranged by Michael J. Glasgow. Spirituals & Gospel, Hymntune, Hymn Arrangements, Festival, General Worship, Faith & Faithfulness, Hope, Adoration & Praise. Handbell score. 12 pages. Hope Publishing Company #2954. Published by Hope Publishing Company (HP.2954).UPC: 763628129545.
Based on hymns by Freeman Lewis & Daniel Teasley. Commissioned for the 2020 Handbell Musicians of America Area 5 Spring Festival in Louisville, Kentucky, this piece starts open and stately before launching with rhythmic energy into a Bluegrass-infused toe-tapper. It brilliantly pairs the Freeman Lewis hymn tune BOURBON ("I Take My Refuge in the Lord") with a Daniel Teasley hymn of similar assurance. Marts, mallets, plucks, ring-touches and more are sure to excite your concert audiences and congregations alike; and the optional band (fiddle, tambourine, bass, and guitar/mandolin/banjo) may be added in any combination for extra charm!.
