Review:
This arrangement of the familiar chorale tune is perfect for small bell or chime choirs. Though it employs martellatos and martellato lifts, chimes can effectively perform the work by simply omitting the technique as indicated by the composer. It features an always dominant melody, incorporating few bell changes and an easy underlying accompaniment that uses quarter and half-note rhythms. 71 measures. Key of g minor.
