Review:
The two tunes HOLY MOUNTAIN and WERE YOU THERE are combined in this medley for 3, 4 or 5-octaves of bells and organ. Both instruments take their turns at playing the melody of HOLY MOUNTAIN in the first key of Ab major. After a modulation to C major the organ begins a somber rendition of WERE YOU THERE as the bells offer light, LV accompaniment. The bells take over and the texture grows and then gradually lessens to a pianissimo ending.
