California, Here I Come!

Sometimes called the unofficial state song of California, this song has been used in a wide variety of settings from Bugs Bunny cartoons to when President and Mrs. Reagan left Washington at the end of his presidential term. This delightful and completely accessible setting for handbells is arranged with the bass mostly malleted helping to keep the tempo. The creative treatment of the melody, the dynamics, and the dancing, upbeat tempo will make this a wonderful staple in your concert repertoire!
