Written for 3 5 octave handbell choir and 3 octaves of handchimes. Level 3. Kerry Johnston's exciting and uplifting original tune is a delightful syncopated frolic, sure to delight ringers and audiences. Driving eighth notes underscore the memorable melody, which takes several unexpected harmonic twists and turns on its way. A more laid-back middle section plays the melody in half time, casting it in a different light, before the opening feeling returns for a rousing conclusion.
