Great Is Thy Faithfulness/Tis So Sweet To Trust In Jesus
An upper level violin solo with piano, the piece demands the use of many double stops displaying duet type lines. It is very rhapsodic in nature plus being expressive throughout. And as a medley in form, it incorporates: “Great Is Thy Faithfulness,” and “‘Tis So Sweet To Trust In Jesus.”

O To Be Like Thee
A woodwind trio for flutes and clarinet with opt. part for oboe, clarinet and alto sax. In a triple meter the piece begins in a lilting fashion. A lot of interesting counterpoint keeps the piece flowing with constant movement. A modulation occurs and the rythmic activity increases while the countrapuntal activity continues. Another modulation takes place and shifts to a duple meter while the melodic material is passed around amongst the various parts. The final section goes back to a triple meter and uses the flavor of the beginning.
