Review:
This setting of "It Is Well With My Soul" uses complex harmonies and flowing arpeggios to create a constantly fluctuating sound against the melody bass. All parts are technically difficult, and parts 1 and 2 require competency in speed and technique. The intended tempo must be very closely if not precisely met, because the familiarity of the melody may be lost without it. Most interestingly, the bass clef carries the melody while the treble ringers play arpeggiated chords. Scored in C Major, this setting is 90 measures.
