Singing bells with treble chords in quartal harmony evoke the feeling of dawn. The tune BUNESSAN is then presented with arpeggiated accompaniment, and some surprising harmonic twists lend new color to the traditional sound. Verses build into a final maestoso before the singing bells take over, then the piece ends as it began. This arrangement is a lovely offering for worship any time of year.
