Review:
Mitchell Eithun provides a plaintive arrangement of the tune GETHSEMANE. Based on the first three stanzas of the hymn, Eithun’s portrayal of the hymn’s narrative includes phrases of the text throughout the score. The piece cleverly ends with an unfinished feel, adding to the anticipation of Easter dawn. Scored for 3–5 octave handbells and handchimes. Level II.
61 measures. Key of Eb Major.
