Description

 Solo Time 4 – Down to the River” is a delightful, extremely versatile rendition of this lovely spiritual, for one or two ringers using a Bell Tree, two or three playing 8 bells or using 4iH – up to a full choir ringing. The optional accompaniments include piano, guitar or handbell ensemble – as well as a free accompaniment track available on the www.handbellworld.com website. An instructional video demonstrating how to string bells on a stick or a stand (as well as describing the many possible performance options for this piece) is also on the website. A soloist or duet pair can learn the piece, and the rest of the ringing ensemble can easily work up the accompaniment in one session to record for worship. Perfect for a quiet moment in worship or concert, it also can serve as an interlude between concert pieces, allowing the other ringers reset for the next piece.
