Two for One - Two simple selections are included in this folio playable by 2-3 octaves of handchimes or handbells. The first selection is "I Will Praise Him" or "Joyance". This piece uses the toll swing effect and full chordal ringing. The second selection is titled "Chimes" and sounds forth as chimes from a carillon. Both works are original compositions for church or school.
