This original work takes the listener through the gamut of emotions that the cross of Christ brings to believers. Beginning with a “lento” character in hushed notes for bells and chimes combined, the music gradually intensifies until a triumphant Maestoso section. Written in the key of c minor, this composition is 81 measures.
