Excursion
The word excursion is defined as "a short trip, especially one that is engaged in as a leisure activity"... But this piece doesn't allow ringers to remain leisurely! Written in fondness of the composer's home in
Pennsylvania's Laurel Highlands, this piece depicts, in music, one of the
composer's favorite drives as described in the sub-title which features
mountainous curves and switchbacks, rolling hills, and pasture land.
