Review:
Fred Bock has long been known for excellent and interesting piano arrangements. At last, some of these are being set for handbells. Kevin McChesney uses mallets on suspended bells and LV to add sparkle to the introduction and then leads into a fuller texture when presenting the melody. After a key change a stronger section comes in with open intervals in the upper bells. The ending is full forte and then backs off to a piano and ends with a mezzo forte again with mallets on suspended bells.
