Revive Us Again

An accompanied brass quartet comprised of two trumpets and two trombones, with optional horn and baritone TC parts. Beginning with an active introduction the bottom line presents the tune with gentle shadings from the other parts. Then the lines become more active with some antiphonal effects. All of a sudden the meter changes and the moods is smooth and solemn. After a short statement, the meter shifts back to the beginning style and shape- being more active, then moving to more solemnity. A new key takes place and the ensemble shifts to just a solo trumpet. Then, one by one, the other parts add in with more activity in counterpoint. The, the composition slows down and because more stately right to the end.
