My Country ‘Tis of Thee (handbell solo/duet)

MY COUNTRY ‘TIS OF THEE – arr. Kevin McChesney – handbell solo/duet with keyboard accompaniment (includes handbell trees)

This piece is quite effective either as a solo or a duet. Maintaining high energy throughout, the handbell trees at the end top it all – a spectacular piece for celebration or worship where a patriotic number is appropriate.

Note: Two versions are included in your purchase. The original version, which includes a key change, is most useful for performers who would prefer to create a specific preset for the handbell trees, playing the first part of the arrangement off the table and the second part on handbell trees. The version with no key change is more suitable to playing the entire arrangement on handbell trees, since the bells used throughout the piece remain the same. The PDF preview is in this order: full score of original version, handbell part for original version, full score for version with no key change, handbell part for version with no key change. The audio preview on this site is for the original version with key change.
