Bathmic Tide

Bath·​mism: a hypothetical growth force.

Two movements for Handbell Choir and percussion. Commissioned in 2018 by the Princeton Ringers in Princeton, New Jersey.

Based on the themes of life and springtime growth, this composition brings handbell music into the modern-classical genre with modal harmonies. The unusual bell pairing is notated on the cover page of the score to accommodate each ringer's participation within this unique composition.

The score is available for purchase here.
