Set in a rather poignant manner, the first two stanzas are followed by an optional third stanza combining Amazing Grace with Taps. The work goes on to two more stanzas, concluding with all the bells of heaven pealing. The work then closes as quietly as it began, with malleted bells, fading into eternity. Appropriate for worship services, funerals, and concerts, the work is especially meaningful for memorials for military persons.

Printed in a non-traditional 4-staff format, Air in D is a creative setting of a J. S. Bach instrumental favorite. The bottom staff is for the malleted bass line, mimicking pizzicato cello. The middle two staves carry the rest of the accompaniment, played on chimes. The top staff is the melody, played by a few ringers or a solo instrument. An assignment scheme for 13 ringers is suggested. Air in D would be a lovely addition to any worship service or concert. You might want to let your ringers hear a recording of the orchestral original version, then take the opportunity to teach ringers the three functional orchestral sections (melody, bass line, and accompaniment). Such an experience can present a great moment of understanding for the group. Similarly, after hearing the contours of Bach's soaring melody sensitively shaped by violins, ringers will aspire to a higher level of musicality.
