Review:
Jane McFadden brings us this dignified and stately arrangement of the chorale tune Wachet Auf. With organ and handbells playing off one another, it is a wonderful exercise in contrast, balance, and musicality. In the absence of organ, a separate part for handchime choir is available; but the handbell score does not stand alone. 73 measures. Keys of C Major and G Major.
