Protection Medley
A brass sextet with opt. parts for flugelhorn and BHTC. The beginning presents a vigorous fanfare where it settles down into solemn rendition of “Leaning On The Everlasting Arms.” After a motivic transition the piece continues with a tuba solo “A Shelter In The Time Of Storm”. with more open scoring passing the tune around amongst the parts. Another modulation, another tune- this time “The Solid Rock” in a slower tempo giving resolve and purpose. The Coda is in a fanfare stance gaining more power leading up to the final chord.

Pilgrim Medley
A brass sextet with opt. parts for flugelhorn and BHTC. The beginning introduces stacked motives building to full chords. Following is a rendition of “When I Can Read My Title Clear” with melody broken down into fragments passed around to the various instruments. After key changes the quintet presents “I Am Bound For The Promised Land” in much the same fabric of the earlier section. After a brief transition in a new key we find “Just Over In The Glory Land” in a more flowing style than the earlier tunes. The Coda section becomes my rhythmically active where it ends on a solid chord .
