Review:
A bold, energenic fanfare propels the listener into this arrangement based on the hymn tune "Diadem" by James Ellor. Syncopated, rung accompaniment as well as malleted, pulsing bass lines support the melody in the upper bells on the first statement of the tune. A contrasting section finds the melody in the lower range before returning to the opening material. The piece begins in C Major, moves to F Major, and is 85 measures.
