Arranged for 4 or 5 octave handbell choir with an optional B-flat 2 and G2. Level 4. A free and ethereal opening gives way to hurried, almost desperate sixteenth notes in this masterwork from Hart Morris, written in honor of Fred Gramann. A syncopated melody ensues, accompanied the entire time by the same frantic sixteenth notes. The mood gradually slows and becomes more hymn-like before the emergence of a final, triumphal verse of the hymntune LOBE DEN HERREN (Praise to the Lord, the Almighty). A grand challenge for any advanced choir looking to showcase their talents.
