A Collection of Favorites for Young Players Handbells are fun to play. And they're a great way for young musicians to master skills in ear-training, music reading, and ensemble playing. That's why we thought it was a great idea to combine handbells with classical music. That way, kids can have fun performing and learn about some of the greatest musical works ever written. The collection features six favorite pieces from six of classical music's greatest composers – Pachelbel, Vivaldi, Bach, Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven. Using the diatonic bells, the tunes are in settings that are designed to feature young bell players. And of course, these arrangements will work with any type of pitched percussion instruments, such as Boomwhackers®.
