What Child Is This?
This flute solo begins with the piano using figures that are very harp-like and then joined by the flute in a plaintive manner. It continues in this manner for some time while modulating through various keys. The tune is then embellished with the piano accompanying in a hocket motif. The final section is then presented in a lilting manner with the piano once again acting in a harp fashion. The ending is a final peaceful rendition.

What Child Is This
A violin solo with piano accompaniment. The pieces starts out with piano only and allows the entrance of the solo violin and a rather straight forward rendition of this beloved song. After a brief transition the solo is modified with a constant modified and moving line while being supported by a single voice counterpoint in the left hand of the piano. The chorus is then a bit more staid and the accompaniment more chordal. Another brief piano interlude is stated with melodic material and the piece becomes more fragmented and motivic with a gentle settling to the end.
