By Sharon Wilson. By Traditional Spiritual. Arranged by Sharon Wilson. This edition: pdf. Children, Folk, Instructional, Sacred, Spiritual. 9 pages. Sharon Wilson #3499685. Published by Sharon Wilson (A0.565154).This sheet music is notated for handbells on one staff and Boomwhackers® on a second staff creating an instrumental ensemble (requires one set of each instrument). Handbells play the melody while the Boomwhackers® keep a steady beat with three-note chords. Included in this set of scores is a combined score with both instrument parts on a grand staff plus a separate 1-staff score for each instrument.
This set of scores uses black and white noteheads. This same set of scores is available (sold separately) with color coded noteheads which may make it easier for beginning players if you have access to a color printer.
Notes used for each instrument are as follows:
Bells: all 8 ~ C D E F G A B C* where C* is high C, one octave above middle C
Boomwhackers®: C D E F G A B
Only filled noteheads (quarter and eighth notes) are used so the notes are easier to see (this does not indicate the bells need to be silenced immediately before the next beat). Also, only quarter rests are used to help visualize the number of beats per measure. Lyrics and chord names are provided as well to aid in the learning and teaching of this song.
The number of ringers and whackers needed will vary depending on the skill level of the participants. For more advanced players, each person could be assigned two or three notes. For beginners, it is best to assign one note to each person. Instrument assignment suggestions are provided on the last page for 6 to 15 players.
Permission is granted to make up to 10 copies of each score. For more than 10 copies, please purchase additional sets.
This arrangement is one of the 10 songs included in the collection "Ten Traditional Spirituals for 8-Note Bells and Boomwhackers®."
