Review:
Open My Eyes is a gentle and prayerful treatment of a most cherished hymn. The arrangement begins with harmonically lush LVs, transitions to a delicate and introspective handchime section, and ends quietly with suspended mallets. The piece is appropriate anytime during the year when music invoking prayer is needed. 74 measures. Keys of Bb Major and Eb Major.
