Hosanna, Loud Hosanna is a well-known Palm Sunday hymn that celebrates Jesus' special relationship with children and his triumphal entry into Jerusalem at the beginning of Holy Week. Jeanette Threlfall wrote the text as a devotional poem in the mid-1800s.
The tune most associate with the text, Ellacombe, comes from songbook of the Wurttemberg ducal court and was harmonized by W. H. Monk in the mid-1800s as well. The name Ellacombe is thought to be in honor of Henry Thomas Ellacombe, a specialist in bell ringing and an Anglican clergyman.
This version was arranged by Mark Lewis for 12-Bell ensemble. While the melody line for this arrangement is quite straightforward, the accompaniment part can be very active. Despite this, the piece should be quite manageable by most intermediate bell ringers. In the provided video of the performance, the bell tree is simply doubling the melody line and while this is a nice touch, it is not required for a faithful performance of the arrangement.
