Celebrations
An original composition for two, 5-octave bell choirs commissioned for several celebrations in a Grand Rapids, Michigan Congregational Church. As one might expect the music is treated antiphonally and placing one choir in the balcony or at a distance from the first choir will add to the effect. The music is bright and stately with fresh harmonies thrown in along the way. In one section a syncopated pattern of eighth-quarter-eighth dominates one choir while the other rings the melody in octaves.
