Review:
This festive piece is ideal for worship celebrations, concerts, and festivals. The music opens in fanfare majesty introducing the “Ode to Joy” melody with an exciting ostinato in the higher bells. The 81-measure piece concludes in an intricate variety of festive and joyous resonance. It is arranged in F Major.
