Here’s the story behind Strollin’ in the Park: One day Libbie Randels asked me to write a piece for her handbell choir. Now, this was an unusual group because it consisted of about three dozen seniors. At the time, their average age was 73 – and they were active, happy, and musical. Getting older is most definitely not a barrier to good handbell ringing!
So… here’s a composition about two people in love taking a romantic walk in a park. The sun is shining… and they get caught in the rain and thunder… and then the sun comes out. Imagine the choreographic opportunities!
