CGB357 For All the Saints (4, 5 or 6 octaves)

This powerful composition begins with a "trumpet call" of five measures followed by the interweaving of bells and keyboard in a regal, majestic style. At mm. 24-25, an uplifting key change occurs from A flat to C major. A keyboard part is published separately (CGB358). The two editions may be played together, making it an excellent festival piece.
