Review:
Robert Schuman's bold composition has been set to offer a variety of options; it may be played by handbells alone, handbells and keyboard, handbells and brass quartet or quintet or handbells, keyboard and brass. A "big" sound is achieved by full chordal texture, shakes, full-chord marts and fortissimo dynamics. At 40 measures in length this arrangement should fit in nicely in a number of scenarios. Brass ensemble consists of 2 trumpets, trombone, Horn, and Tuba.
