@Funkemarie123 Composer’s synopsis
A detachment of native soldiers approach and pass through a village, then a song from a boat on the Nile is heard softly across the water. A short passage depicting an Arab playing his pipe leads to a repetition of the song-melody by the full orchestra. The soldiers now return and some of them sing the song in harmony. A few bars of the melody bring the piece to a quiet conclusion.

ketèlbey was inspired and moved,one silent evening when he was somewhere in GOZO,MALTA and all of a sudden he heard the bells of Ta Pinu church ring.He was so moved that he composed here,where he was stationed as a musician.A tribute to Gozitan bells.The original manuscript of Bells Across the Meadows,as written down by Ketèlbey himself of course,is still kept in the musical archives at the Aurora Opera House Gozo.For more details you can click the website leone.org.mt/pages/teatru.asp

Embora classificado como um compositor menor, com a sua "abominável musica de circo" como disse um crítico, Albert Ketebey se firmou como um clássico e a sua musica permanece através dos tempos. Seus "jardins" são simplesmente divinos. Musica de fazer arrepiar a pele e sensibilizar o mais arredio dos mortais. Recomendo todas do mestre, que aprendí a admirar desde jovem.

@tstsullivan797 Yes, and as I understand Mr. Ketelbey
cried all the way to the bank as he became quite wealthy
from this and other "popular" music he wrote.

Katelbey is often attacked as inferior, when he was often the first in a particular genre, and familiarity can breed contempt, in his case this has held back appreciation of his very fine works. The multiple versions and settings for any instruments does not help, a poor performance is a poor one, and his reputation suffered at times.
