This short subdued piece of native American origin offers a wealth of colorful sounds with rich chords of singing bells and melodic sections for handchimes or solo flute. It is a good study for broadly scored chord ringing at varied dynamic levels for both bells and chimes. It is written in the key of C with no accidentals, so the choir can concentrate on beautiful ensemble accuracy. 76 measures. Flute part is printed in the handbell score.
