Review:
John A. Behnke has arranged an Easter medley that weaves together the hymn tunes LLANFAIR, CHRIST IST ERSTANDEN, and DUKE STREET. The middle section uses the singing bell technique and a canon on the ancient CHRIST IST ERSTANDEN melody. In the closing section, DUKE STREET comes alive with rhythmic mallet work. Keys for Bb Major and C Major. 89 measures.
