Moorish Dance

Description

This lively tune from Act 2, Scene 1 of  Verdi’s opera – Aïda – has been arranged for handbells. It features malleting bells on the table (or other stopped technique) intermittently interspersed with Rung notes throughout. It moves along at a fast pace that can be adapted for your group’s ability. There are many instances of grace notes which may provide a bit of a challenge at tempo. It ends with a dramatic TLD!  A great piece for concerts and festival ringing.
