A Shelter In The Time Of Storm
$9.00
An unaccompanied quartet for two flutes and two clarinets. The introduction is presented in a rather rollicking manner where it breaks into a first presentation of the melody- the verse is more said while the chorus is more snappy. A brief transition gives way to the first flute stating the tune, supported by the clarinets with this chorus more block. A modulation takes place using motivic material from the theme with the style smoother and more contrapuntal. The coda section takes from the introduction material and gains dynamic momentum, with a snappy ending.

What A Friend
$9.00Scored for Saxophone quartet (A-A-T-B) with opt. Soprano for first Alto. The introduction starts with the First Alto playing a melodic motif, ever rising to a climatic point and then settling down to the theme- first presented in the First and Tenor parts weaving in and out producing a flowing texture, then joined by the Second Alto and eventually the Baritone. The chorus section of the hymn is a constant weaving of the four parts both harmonically and rhythmically. The next section becomes more active rhythmically adding tension until it settles down into a sweet aura of sound with gentle nudges of harmonic alteration. The final measures give an atmosphere of rest and solace.
