Christ Arose

This saxophone quartet is portrayed in a crisp and cheerful manner. The theme is passed around among the various parts and gains excitement as it passes through several keys. Surely a delight as a special number in any venue. (S/A-A-T-B)

A unaccompanied flute quartet that begins with an extensive introduction with moving lines in all four parts. The next section is carried in the fourth part with counter lines in the upper parts. The interest then shifts to the upper parts with counterlines in the lower voices. The last section is carried by the upper line but is shifted around the various voices giving much interest to the piece and a sense of constant movement

This quartet is in a solemn legato style throughout featuring melodic materials in each of the four parts. It is graced with gently moving accompaniment lines that further enhances the reflective spirit which is so evident in this hymn. It peaks in different portions of the composition and then reflects itself in a quiet repose to end.

An accompanied flute solo which begins with a piano introduction and then presents a modified melody with an extended cadence in the piano. A modulation occurs where the solo line presents a variation of the original theme to a higher register giving a sense of intensity and then ends with a solemn motive.
