Festive Toll
Propulsive eighth notes underscore a primal melody of moving parallel fourths before passing on to a beautiful melody on handchimes. A short chromatic interlude then gives way to a setting of the first theme accompanied by triplet eighth notes before returning to the opening feel and a triumphal conclusion. This piece is a fantastic choice for any time you want to add a bit of mystery and intrigue to your concert or church service. 102 measures.
