Peal . . . for carillon

Larry Sitsky (2000/1)

"Peal" was written for a Sitsky family wedding in October 2000 . . . near the National Carillon in Canberra. It was performed on that occasion by the above carillonist and was recently extended for more general carillon performance. The music is in contemporary style but is based on traditional peals and chimes.
