Review:
Antiphonal: When separate groups of performers alternate or respond to each other. That's the "feel" of this original composition in g minor for ONE choir of 2-3 octaves of bells. In its score the upper and lower register of bells interact with each other in "antiphonal" style. This is a good way for ringers to learn to listen to each other and match a rhythmic, dynamic, or technical element. Martellatos contribute to a final big ending at measure 62.
