Hopefully some of these releases from Ring Out! Press and Composers Music may be helpful. Look closely at Valley of Peace by Howard E. Starks. Some have said it is reminiscent of his classic Beside Still Waters. It also has a nice optional C instrument part. Swing Low by Hart Morris in swing time (and only level 3) is great fun. You will find many places to use this one. Movin on Up should be useful for many choirs. It is designed for groups ready to move beyond level one. There are 4 arrangements that are level one plus and three that are level two minus. All are well known hymn tunes and can be rung by 2, 2 ½ or 3 octaves of bells or chimes. The Composers Music releases are all level two. Judy Philips has made a delightful setting of the English tune Early One Morning. Sandra Eithun contributes two strong original tunes in Fanfare and March in F. Halcyon Song by Kirtsy Mitchell has a lovely, haunting melody. You will notice that both original selections have alternate titles, which may be more appropriate for church use. As always, the releases of Composers Music are useful for handchimes and public school use. Have a good year, Bill Ingram O ne of the exciting things about being editor for Jeffers/ RingingWord is the opportunity to bring such a wide variety of music to ringers and directors. This season we have music for beginners: All Glory, Laud and Honor, Were You There When I Surveyed the Wondrous Cross and another installment in the popular Ring Together Series, Ring Together Sacred Classics. The advanced groups also have some terrific new material: Vivace, Furioso and a strong concert work, Passacaglia. There are plenty of titles in between as well - music for Lent like Jesus Lover of My Soul, music for general worship and concert, and a couple of particularly exciting patriotic numbers, When Johnny Comes Marching Home and the very popular This Land Is Your Land. I d like to make special mention of Parting by Barbara Werner. Barbara lost her father in the attacks of 9/11, and this piece is her tribute to him. We are also happy to bring you two new handbell solos Be Thou My Vision and Greensleeves. I encourage you to explore the variety in your handbell programs this season, stretch your group, have them take on new styles and continue to improve their technique and presentation with this fine music from some of the best writers in the business. Enjoy! Kevin McChesney Greetings from Our Editors JHS- BELL www. HandbellWorld. com Toll- Free 8AM to 7PM (est) Mon.- Fri.

7 Bell Tree Stands Made to make the use of bell trees and malleted bells easier, we proudly introduce the Bell Tree Stand. In its lowest position, the stand is only 58" tall and will hold only one arm, handy for hanging one or two bells near a table so they can be easily played during a piece. The inner pole can be extended to 69", 73", 77" or 81" in order to hold multiple arms (the number of arms that can be used is determined by the size and position of the bells you place on them). In any of these positions, bells can be hung for solo or ensemble ringing or used to increase the number of bells which can be rung by a choir member. Each Bell Tree Stand comes with two arms, which are held tightly in place anywhere along the pole extension (additional arms are available). Bell handles are held securely in place by inconspicuous O rings which can be positioned according to your needs. Just slip a bell handle onto an arm and roll the rubber rings into place on each side of the handle. Bell Tree Stands can be used on rollers or with a stationery base. The base measures 24 across and weighs about 14 lbs. It comes with four adjustable feet, which can be used to conform to uneven floors. Assembling your bell tree stand is a snap! The bell tree stand base attaches to the pole by joining the two identical metal plates, one on the pole and one on the base. Place the bolts provided through the four holes and secure them with the wing nuts, also provided. The stand may be disassembled for transport, or it may be left assembled Bell Tree Stand w/ 2 arms $ Metal Bell Tree Clips These Wire Bell Tree Separator Clips are recommended for bell tree use of bells C6 and above.
