Review:
This AGEHR Area XII Composition Contest winner is a lilting original piece that will lift the spirits of ringers and listeners alike. With thumb damps, swings, martellatos, and martellato lifts, it makes great use of interesting techniques. The contrasting middle section uses three octaves of handchimes before returning to the opening material. The piece ends with a beautiful, suspended and malleted chord. 84 measures in length, it is written in C Major and Eb Major.
