Rhapsody in Blue, the iconic work by George Gershwin, entered the public domain as of 2020. So it’s time to arrange it for handbells! (Well, this was done some years back, but that version is long out of print.)
While none of the sections of this arrangement are of an AGEHR Level higher than 5, playing this arrangement in its entirety would be a tremendous challenge, so the overall work is rated Level 6+. It would be the experience of a lifetime to play this!
Handbells (five to eight octaves, plus handchimes, five octaves)
Level 6+
