Program notes

Etude No. 1 explores two contrasting themes and closes with a coda. Transitions between large sections should be achieved with a graceful and musical result, utilizing flexible dynamics and meter to build appropriate rise and fall of phrases. Phrases are constructed with large sweeping gestures which allow the carillon to build its sound. Use alternating hands when possible, but there are several instances where it may be easier for two adjacent batons to be covered with one hand with an open palm, especially in the coda. These instances are indicated with a vertical bracket ( [ ).

Etude No. 2 is a fast toccata-rondo. The formal structure adheres strictly to ABACABA. This etude can be played almost entirely by alternating hands and is designed to be played fast. Strive for a quick and steady tempo which allows the 16ths to be even throughout. Indications of 'R' for right and 'L' for left hands and the horizontal bracket (the traditional symbol for playing two adjacent batons with the same hand) are provided as a guide, however one may choose the handling which best suits one's individual interpretation.

—Lee Cobb
