Homecoming
Mitchell Eithun.
The dedication on this original says, "A prayer that we might
all be freed from the fear of gun violence." The piece echoes
the sentiment with a simple, pensive motive that is repeated
and enhanced with each iteration. The middle section is more
dramatic, using a rhythmically malleted bass line expressing
urgency or pleading. The piece segues back to the reflective
opening material before quietly ending.

Grazioso Giocoso
Cathy Moklebust.
This flexible and imaginative original work is written for double
handbell and handchime choirs, but it can also be performed by
a single ensemble using bells and chimes or bells alone. The
Grazioso section opens with a gentle, childlike simplicity, gradually
maturing into rich harmonies and flowing counterpoint. The lively
Giocoso section introduces shifting meters (8/8, 4/4, and 6/8),
adding melodic and rhythmic intrigue while maintaining a repetitive
foundation that's easy to internalize. A variety of handbell
techniques are used. Choir I, scored for 3-7 octaves, is Level
3. Choir II, scored for 3 octaves, is Level 2+. Both incorporate
optional handchimes. Enjoy this joyful and versatile selection for
worship or concert.
