Review:
The 16th-century English ballad is scored for a 3-5 octave handbell choir combined with a 2-3 octave handchime choir. The chime part is easier than the bell part, making this piece a good choice for combining two groups of differing ability levels. An original theme serves as an introduction, interlude, and ending for this richly harmonized arrangement.
