James Leith Macbeth Bain (1860-1925) was a Scottish hymn writer who became known to his peers as Brother James. Michael Mazzatenta's setting reverently pays homage to Bain's tune and to the tranquil, comforting Psalm 23, the text with which it is most often paired. The melody is presented with handchimes over a soft cacophony of random ringing. Later, creative imitation of the melody ensues. The piece closes as it opened, serene and untroubled. This is beautiful for weddings as well as for worship.
