Notes

An Album for the Carillon includes settings of some familiar and not-so-familiar hymn tunes and traditional songs, along with three exerpts from the classics (Elgar, Handel, Parry, and Sibelius). Many of the scores were prepared for Cranbrook-Kingswood Schools graduation ceremonies at Christ Church Cranbrook in 2000, while others have been added to encompass the Christmas season. Some selections are more extended than others and offer greater technical challenges, notably the Variations on Greensleeves, Quodlibet and Aria on Brother James’ Air, Mit Freuden Zart, and St. James, and the Sonata on Marion and The Ashgrove.

The settings offered here are in single-page printed format, with a plastic sleeve provided for storage. While lacking the convenience of a bound collection, each selection can be extracted for performance and positioned on the music rack without the inconvenience of page turns. Some performers will choose to bind each separate score to suit individual preferences for music rack layout.

In some instances, lower pedal notes available only on larger instruments have been included, with alternative octave pitches notated in parentheses. Tempo markings are of a general nature and will allow greater latitude from one performer and carillon to another.
