Together As One

This original piece was the winner of the 2021 Festival Conference Composition Contest, Area 2, HMA.  It has a strong melody and is filled with rhythm and energy which is emphasized by well-placed marts and mart-lifts. It segues to TD treble which supports the melody in the mid-octaves then adds handchime support to the bass melody. A very nice ‘B’ section features handchime section with melody again featured in the rich, tonal mid-range.  Returning to the original theme, the melody returns with a brief section featuring LV treble support, gradually building in energy to an exciting ending.  This is well-written to nicely feature every octave of the bell and chime range – ringers will love it.  It is perfect for worship or concert.
