Original

Drop, Drop, Slow Tears - Handbells composed by Sam Batt Owens. For handbells. Parish. Choral, General, Lent. Easy. Handbell score. Published by Paraclete Press. PL.9509HB. Sam Batt Owens conveys the languid feeling of this Lenten text with a descending melodic bell and vocal line, as tears would fall to the ground. This descending motif is developed and repeated throughout at varying tempos and dynamic levels. He creates a sense of suffering, particularly in the "crying for vengeance", where the bells rise and fall with the urgency of the text, and are left undamped. This two-part anthem is accessible not only to adult choirs, but to youth choirs as well.
