Review:
Accidental changes in one section push this otherwise level 3 piece into an advanced difficulty rating, making it a good "stretch" piece for your choir. The tune PICARDY is set with bells and with optional handchimes (4 octaves). Mallets, both on suspended and tabled bells, add ambiance and mystery, especially in the haunting ending. Arranged in the key of d minor and e minor, the piece is 92 measures.
