The First Noel
The introduction is a rousing declamation of a motive from the theme. The theme is presented in tact while the accompaniment supports with a delightful (music-box) movement. The next section is reflective with more counterpoint and then interrupted with a flair of accented variations. The final section concludes with much of the opening flavor and establishes the story with a solid cadence.

A flute solo with orchestra presents itself with a sense of flair- much in a rhapsodic fashion. It has continual embellishment of the theme. Very merry! Very joyful!

This piece has it all!

The Holly and The Ivy
Four Plus Brass Series- for two Trumpets and two Trombones (with opt. Horn and Tuba for color). Right out of the ate the first trumpet establishes the tune and the style in a vigorous manner. The middle voices then chase after each other in a gracious counterpoint. The middle section presents the tune in the trombone line while the trumpets offer an obbligato addition. With the second trombone presenting the tune the upper voices offer a rollicking accompaniment. The a modulation where the style becomes more florid it all becomes more solidified to a hold. Then, it takes off once again the a brisk ending.

God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen
Four Plus Brass Series- for two Trumpets and two Trombones (with opt. Horn and Tuba for color). In alla breve, the style is pensive a thoughtful of mankind at peace with their situation The trumpets carry the tune throughout the whole first section until it goes into a imitative section with the trombones. After a modulation takes place the trombones carry the tune much in the same style as the trumpets, earlier. The final section becomes more relaxed where it lies in simple relation.
