Review:
This is a solid arrangement of the early American hymn tune. It gives equal importance to both the 3 octave and 5 octave handbell choirs. Using an antiphonal style in some sections and melody/accompaniment patterns in other sections, this well balanced setting is suitable for two choirs or a massed ringing situation. The 45-measure piece is arranged in A Major and F Major.
