Review:
Mostly malleted with syncopated accents, this arrangement was especially written for youth choirs but will be enjoyed by ringers of all ages. Beethoven’s familiar Hymn to Joy first appears in a rhythmic chordal version, and then in a more flowing, contrasting middle section. The mallets and rhythmic treatment return for an exciting conclusion. 76 measures. Key of F Major.
