3-6 octaves - level 3, optional 2 octaves of handchimes - At times both rhythmically- and harmonically-off-kilter, this arrangement gives voice to the feeling of loss and confusion associated with the Lenten season. Through a contemplative middle section making use of the echo technique, the piece rises to a triumphant, major iteration of the theme signaling the victory of Easter morning.
