I long had the piece, "Rock-A My Soul", solo arrangement by Connie Nicholson and Joann Ramsdale. I haven't played it in several years, Now I have a special request to perform it and I can't find it anywhere in my handbell music collection. Jeffers doesn't list it, which presumably means it is out of print. It is listed with Sheet Music Plus, but I'm having trouble setting up payment. Can anybody help?

Sorry I can't help. Good Luck!

Before you wonder "Am I doing things right," ask "Am I doing the right things?"

Hi Rise!

Ok, this is strange.  I found your title on Jeffers.   However, if you click on Preview, it says it's The Holly and the Ivy.  And that's what's on the cover.  But if you move on to the inside of the music, it's Rock-a My Soul, by the arrangers you mentioned.  And judging from the first few notes, it's definitely Rock-a my Soul, not Holly and Ivy.


Try again.  I wonder if they've lost sales with this mixup?

H Risë~
I have a copy.  I've never played it, and probably won't.
I could send it to you... text or Im me.
