Instrumental Solotrax, Vol III Book

This solo is plaintive throughout as it begins with a simple melodic motive. The first verse is simply stated in the solo while supported with broken chords in the piano. The second verse is much like the first but the piano not supports the tune with gentle punctuations. The third verse is in the piano while the solo line produces a ebb and repose obbligato- the two line join together in a dramatic cadence and then settles down to a quite repose where the piano continues in a solemn flavor. The final statement in the solo is much like the first where it is joined with moving scale patterns in the piano. The two players sweep upward one last time to then settle down into solemnity.

This solo with piano is straight forward in design, giving the young player the opportunity to display dynamic and stylistic variety.

This solo with piano begins with a modified melodic statement. It enters into a second section with simple obligati and then returns to a beginning-like statement and ends with a simple coda.

This solo with piano makes a straight forward statement of the tune followed by a contrasting section using a new counter melody. It then returns to the opening theme.

This piece would serve well as a meditation. Beginning with a quiet Celtic lilt, the center section is stronger and bolder. After several bell effects, the piece returns to the mood of the beginning.
