Review:
A brief chordal statement of the hymn tune AURELIA gives way to a full treatment in an unexpected 3/4 time with a syncopated underpinning. The melody travels throughout the ensemble, giving all your ringers their moment in the spotlight. The piece gradually fades away to a calm and serene ending. The brief introduction is in Ab Major, which then modulates to F Major with hints of f minor. 96 measures.
