An accompanied clarinet trio opening with an exciting motive. The first rendition is in block harmonies with occasional rhythmic punctuations. The next section has subtle contrapuntal statements amongst all parts giving a joyous texture. After a modulation the ensemble alternates between solo statements and full ensemble giving contrasts in texture and color. Another modulation ensues where imitative motives take place through the voices only to come together in a solid fashion for an exciting ending.

A trio for trumpet, horn, trombone piano with optional snare drum. The begins with an extended piano using a soft tremolo while a muted trumpet plays “taps.” The motive is echoed in the horn and trombone with a snare drum adding a military style sequence. The piece continues with the trombone presenting the “Battle Hymn of the Republic. A trio of the brass instruments now presents the tune in a block harmonization building to a climax and then fading into the distance. After a modulation the Navy Hymn, “Eternal Father Strong To Save” is presented in block style. Another modulation and the representation of “Taps” concludes the piece in an imitative construction.
