Product Description

The First Nowell is an old English carol that was rediscovered and collected in the late 1800's, and has continued to be a favorite Christmas carol in England and North America. This arrangement for 19 bells from a standard two octave bell set can be played by hand bells, hand chimes or tone chimes. This arrangement is quite dense, with melodies set both in the upper and lower octaves, so players must have a good sense of dynamic control to bring out the melody line. At a little over two and a half minutes, it is both a fine performance piece, and a good, familiar choice for a worship setting.

This is a reproducible product. This piece may be purchased as a score for one performing group, and copies made for the members of that one performing group. Save money and space while allowing for more flexibility in annotating from year to year.

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.
