Here is a list of 8-bell music for Easter, Lent and Holy Week – including Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. This list is designed as a guide for anyone considering booking us to play handbell duets for a worship service or Easter celebration. However, many of these arrangements are available as sheet music to purchase, so please visit our music site, Choraegus if you’re looking for music for your own handbell choir or small ensemble to play.
