Review:
The beloved spiritual comes alive in Ron Mallory’s energetic setting. The treble and bass bells work together in a call-and-response treatment of the melody in the free opening statement. You’ll want to have rhythmically sound players on the bass bells to facilitate the malleted accelerando into the primary tempo. 82 measures. Keys of C Major and D Major.
