The Great Physician

This trio begins with a simple rendition of the melody supported by the lower voices and then goes into light imitation of the melodic motifs. The second statement passes the tune around the parts with brief embellishment by the remaining parts and then concludes on a strong chord with piano under-pining.

After a short piano introduction, the first part introduces the tune as a solo and then joined in with the others parts as decorations leading up to traditional harmonic movement. The second section alternates between parts in a duet fashion and then breaks into a full trio presentation. With a final flourish the pieces concludes.

A woodwind trio for flute; unaccompanied. Like a stately march the introduction uses a motif gravitating through several harmonic changes giving way to a modified thematic presentation with all three parts being in active counterpoint,and the tune passed about all the parts. The tune then moves about in a hocket fashion keeping all parts busy. The final section is somewhat in keeping with the first section coming to a solid “Praise Him” conclusion.

This clarinet trio begins with a delightful moving motive in the piano to be joined with the first part, then a duet with part two and then a trio with all three parts. The next section is solemn as the piano drops out and then all join in for an active presentation. The last section begins the theme in the third part with some imitation from part two until the first part takes over the theme and continues in this manner. The coda is simple giving a sense of peace.

This trio begins with a joyful piano introduction which leads into a three part harmonization of the instrumental parts. The second section is a lilting (waltz feeling) in block harmonization and then goes into a bell-tone rendition of the tune. A brief transition in a slower, expressive style comes to repose where it concludes in the joyful style that the piece began.
