* If handbells are not available, this part may be played on any percussion instrument of similar timbre, such as a glockenspiel, or on the

organ using an appropriate stop. Note that since handbells are written an octave lower than sounding pitch, this part should be played an

octave higher if played on a non-transposing instrument. If omitting the instrumental part, begin the piece at bar 4.
