Brian’s Music Notes
with Brian Childers
Soliloquy
By Judy Phillips
AG 36049
3-6 Octaves, Level 2+
This beautiful Judy Phillips original is one you will not want to miss! Originally published in 2012, this beautiful and soulful melody is surrounded by singing bells, malleted bells off the table, and a judicious use of chimes all working together to create a stunning and beautiful presentation. Commissioned in honor of Jessica Westgard Larson, Soliloquy is appropriate for lenten services or any concert throughout the year.
“Soliloquy” may be purchased from Handbell World and JW Pepper (Click the links to take you directly to this title on their websites)
