The Steps Of A Good Man
$12.00

Meeting In The Air
$12.00A traditional brass quintet with opt. trumpet for horn and extra baritone for use as a sextet. The piece takes off immediately with a thematic statement in the trombone, breaking in a duet with the horn. Additional entries keep massing in the lower voices until most of the ensemble is involved. All of a sudden, the upper brass, silently present the tune in block harmonies until the lower brass present a countermelody. Now! Everybody’s involved. Next, a dialog between the upper brass and middle brass takes place as it alternates back and forth. With a modulation in place the tempo goes slow, the tune is in the lower brass- expressive! All of a sudden from bottom to top motives are presented- in stacked chords…. This goes through different transformations until the piece elevates into an uplifting conclusion.

Spirit of God, Decend Upon My Heart
$10.00A standard brass quintet with optional trumpet for horn. The piece opens with a solo trumpet and gradually adds voices until it leads up to a modulation where the theme is now in the lower voices with gentle harmonic shifts. The upper voices respond with more motion until things are met with another modulation. This new section is more stayed until another modulation greets yet another modulation with the parts all intertwining amongst themselves and then… a solemn conclusion.
