Crucible, The

Review:      "The Crucible" is a thrilling challenge from the pen of composer Caleb J. Onstead. Receiving an Honorable Mention in the 2023 David Davidson Composition Contest, this piece of music takes ringers to new heights. Written in two sections, the Prelude sees ringers encounter mixed meter and flurries of 16th notes, while a spirited Toccata makes up the rest of this work.

The composer's notes, included in the score, shed light on the inspirations behind the piece. Between bell changes, meter changes, numerous articulations, and techniques, as well as use of the full 8 octaves of handbells, ringers who play "The Crucible" will certainly be pushed to the melting point playing this exciting composition! This is a definite "must-have" title for the most advanced groups to enjoy!
