If your family owns handbells, you can now play Easter Hosanna using my video below! You can find out more about purchasing handbells HERE.
I’d love it if you’d like and subscribe to my YouTube channel HERE!
A few tips on using my Easter Hosanna handbell chart:
- The handbells needed to play this chart are: A C D E F G
- The red AND white bells (if you have the white bell) can both play all the red C notes.
- When 3 notes are in the same box, they are to be played at the same time as a chord. I will lay my pointing stick across all 3 indicating that all 3 should be played together.
You can also download my chart at my Resource Library. Instructions for accessing my Resource Library are found at the bottom of this post.
