Fanfare on Alleluias
This is a brass trio with piano accompaniment. The brass scoring is for trumpet, horn or flugel horn, and trombone or baritone. The style is presented in a majestic manner first in block harmonies and then in a hocket structure. After a florid manner the piece follows a somewhat straight forward manner using fanfare motives in the upper parts the motion becomes more imitative. The final section is quite imitative and uses an overlayering of parts producing enjoyable passing around of the tune in a contrapuntal manner. With a final fanfare the piece concludes.

Leaning On The Everlasting Arms
This solo begins with a easy lilt underpinned by a gentle accompaniment. Moving into the second section of the piece the tune is embellished in a variation format of chromatic triplets. It repeats back to the first section and proceeds to a Coda section- again, in a triplet format.

It Is Well With My Soul
Traditional setting, slightly contemporary- begins with piano in a motif of the theme. The first section is a stylized rendition of the theme. Then, it continues in the chorus much the same. A transition becomes freer in rhythm and harmony. It then repeats back to the opening sections and then moves to the coda where the piece ends in a solemn fashion.

Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee
A delightful percussion quartet that incorporates bells (mallets), timpani (optional), snare drum, cymbals and bass drum. The snare drum is integral through out establishing a martial-march style while supplemented with the bass drum and cymbals. The bells provide the melodic material moving in and out to add variety. The piece ends with an abrupt punctuation. A truly spirited piece for the younger performer.
