Review:
This beautifully crafted original work is arranged here for Bell Tree Solo with piano accompaniment. It begins with a gentle and mysterious legato section as the solo introduces hints of the melody. This leads to a very nice segue into the key of F-major and the introduction of a gently syncopated rhythm. The fully developed melody is enhanced by contrapuntal echoes in the piano while the soloist rings a lyrical accompaniment. A very nice interplay with ongoing legato eighth note passages moving smoothly to C-major then back to F-major continues to the final section where both pianist and soloist are fully integrated into the exciting and dynamic ending!
The piano score is included as a pull-out section and the composer included charts showing a well-thought-out bell tree setup. It is also available with 3-5 octave handbell choir accompaniment, as it was originally conceived (item #
MFM20715).
