Product Description

Many people are familiar with the story of how "Amazing Grace" came into being as a song. The tune "New Britain" has become so associated with the song that many people do not even know that the lyrics can be put with many other tunes.

This arrangement for 12-bell by Mark Lewis does go with the very traditional "New Britain," however it is quite unique. Even though this is a 12-bell piece with no bell changes, the arrangement sets the tune in three different tonal centers: F major, Bb major, and the mode of C Dorian. Additionally, verses alternate between the traditional 3/4 time signature and the not so traditional 4/4 meter. The accompaniment to the melody is very active, consisting of running eighth notes or syncopated eighth-note/quarter-note patterns for most of the piece.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
