Review:
Brenda Austin gives us a heartfelt and expressive arrangement of the beloved 19th century hymn tune GORDON, which begins freely with the singing bell technique and suspended, malleted bells. A straight-forward setting of the hymn rung on handchimes serves as a contrasting middle section. Key of C Major. 62 measures.
