Review:
Lovely broken chords support the haunting melody line – which is found in both the treble and bass. This Level 2 score of 43 measures is easy to read with large noteheads. Kingsfold is a well known traditional English tune from 1893 with over 100 texts associated with it, so it can be used year ‘round in liturgy. This setting would also be ideal as a lyric piece in a concert, school or festival setting. Part of the True Music series from ringTrue, featuring well-crafted music for concert, festival and worship. 43 measures. 2:40 performance time As proof of its accessibility, the sound file was recorded at a once-through reading session during Mosaic Handbell Ensemble’s “Ring & Polish” workshop, March 2023.
