Review:
A bouncy accompaniment using a variety of techniques is the backdrop for this setting of the familiar hymn "How Firm a Foundation". Your ringers will enjoy using mallets, thumb damps, shakes and martellato lifts to add color to this energetic piece. This is a good opportunity for beginning ringers to learn the melody/accompaniment relationship. Set in C Major, it is 48 measures long.
