Handbell Hanukkah, A
by Karl HitzemannHanukkah is a joyous time of year. So, why not celebrate it with handbells, rhythms sticks, and finger cymbals?! Oh, and singing. "A Handbell Hanukkah" combines all four of these elements, but would work in any combination that best suits your needs. You always have the option of adding even more joyous instruments, if you'd like. Tambourines, triangles, sand blocks, and the like, would all add to the joyousness.
The song itself is very simple and most students should be able to sing it, even your youngest. And because it's unison and repetitious, it probably won't take long to learn it. To help your young players, we have included isolated handbell and rhythm sticks/finger cymbals student parts with the kit. There is also an accompaniment track that does not include a handbell guide. (from Music K-8, Vol. 32, No. 2)xj
