Based on the familiar Largo section from Antonin Dvorak's Symphony No. 9 and John 14:2 "In my Father's house are many mansions... I go to prepare a place for you," this arrangement was commissioned in memory of a beloved ringer. The middle section showcases the melody in the lower registers played by optional chimes. Fully scored with good opportunities for musical contrast, "Many Mansions" is scored in the keys of C, Db and D Majors and is 96 measures.
