| Description |
"Ring Out, Ye Bells" was arranged in 2008 for SATB choir a cappella with Horn in F. Lyrics by Paul Lawrence Dunbar (1872-1906), this classic Hymn is a favorite. The addition of the Horn descant is an excellent stroke. $1.90 per octavo with Horn and optional Piano parts included. 20 octavo minimum order. The composer writes: "Ring Out, Ye Bells, for SATB choir a capella with Horn obbligato: This new Christmas carol, with a text by nineteenth-century African-American poet Paul Lawrence Dunbar, brims full of musical imagery. The horn obbligato, sometimes an integral harmonic voice for the choir, sometimes a joyful descant, rounds off the setting. For choirs wishing a bit of extra instrumental underlay an optional piano part is included." |
