SONNET (FROM THE “ST. FRANCIS SUITE”) – Kevin McChesney – 3-5 octaves handbells – Level III+

From the “St. Francis Suite,” this evocative, atmospheric, and beautifully flowing music will fill your sanctuary or concert hall. A “sonnet” is usually associated with a 14-line poem, but more generally refers to a lyric verse and the word “sonnet” simply means “sound.” So here is an expression of love, spirit, and prayer in legato sounds with a singing melody. Great for worship and concert.
