Channels Only
A Cello duet beginning with a motivic introduction followed by part one presenting a modified melody with part two using a moving countermelody. The next phrase the roles are reversed. Next a modulation occurs and the melodic material is much like the first verse followed my another modulation. The coda section is much like the introduction only this time in a different meter and concludes in a simplistic fashion.

Trust Him Only
Scored for two unaccompanied strings it begins with a motif in imitation… The first thematic statement is made with a delicately altered theme in the upper line while the lower line moves in a gentle counterpoint.. The second section is in a new key at a higher level with the melody alters even more while the second voice is more expressive and stretched out. The next section changes key once again and mirrors the movement of the first section. Again, a modulation takes place and the parts are more bold and duet like in their presentation. A final modulation takes the piece upward and the style is more bold where it comes to a brief Coda- where it relaxes into a quite confidence.

Springs Of Living Water
Bubbly is an appropriate description of this violin duet from beginning to end. It begins with non-thematic material and then breaks into the song as a simply duet style followed by the second part carrying the theme while the first part adds a delightful obbligato. The middle section is a contrast in tempo and style with an expressive line in the first violin with a gentle underpinning of the piano. After a tempo increase the violins repeat the duet style line of earlier section and then embellishes the lines with more active rhythms. With a final acceleration, the piece comes to a solid close.

It Is Well With My Soul
A duet for marimba- two players on one instrument. Marimba I plays music in the treble clef, while Marimba II plays music in the bass clef. The first and last sections of the piece are in a solemn style while the middle section moves along at a faster pace. As one would expect most of the notes are played with a tremalo technic and often in duet lines. The middle section is highly arpeggiated in part II. As one would expect the piece is gnerally queit and reflective

Power And Glory Medley
An accompanied brass duet for trumpet and trombone (Opt. horn and Baritone). A brief introduction in the piano gives readily to the duet lines presenting the melody (Power In The Blood) alternated by phrase. A short transition and the trombone presents new material based on (Glory To His Name) giving over to the trumpet to complete it.
