This engaging traditional spiritual has been given a fresh new setting by Billy Brandt. The familiar melody is first rung on handchimes with gently-malleted bass supporting it before it launches into the main theme.  Its rhythmic style features straight rhythms, syncopation, and even a ‘swing’ section – all enhanced by malleted bass, mart, mart-lift, and shake. Dynamics add to the excitement. This will be an excellent title for a choir to develop their technique skills.

Handbells used:                  4 - 6 octaves

Handchimes used:             F5, Ab5, Bb5, C6

 Level:                                   3
