Description

 Giuseppe Verdi’s famous chorus from “Il Trovatore” has bet set by Valerie Stephenson for 3-5 octaves of “very busy” handbells(!) and optional triangle and (of course) anvil(s). The tempo is marked Allegro, quarter note = 120-138 and the first two measures call for 32nd notes! Ringers will enjoy the challenge of grace notes, lots of malleted passages, precision of damping the rests and alternating between marts and damps! A total of 88 measures, this score emphasizes G Major and C Major.
