Great Is Thy Faithfulness

This creative and dynamic setting of a favorite hymn is for handbell quartet and piano in equal importance, with the parts alternating between verses and refrains, ultimately joining together on the final refrain. In the bell quartet, each ringer has only two notes from the D major scale (no accidentals), and thus can play without tables. The piano score is written in Classical/Romantic style and includes some creative jazz-chord reharmonizations. This celebratory piece for all occasions, features bell peals and shakes in the quartet with colorful and varied accompaniment in the piano part.
