As The Deer (solo Bb/C)

This solo with piano begins with the strains of a lion’s roar. Next enters Daniel in a simple fashion followed by a statement in a triumphal march. The lions return-Daniel prevails.

This solo with piano begins with a modified melodic statement. It enters into a second section with simple obligati and then returns to a beginning-like statement and ends with a simple coda.

This is a flute solo that begins in a flowing manner and quickly accelerates to a more technical rendition of the tune creating a delightful atmosphere of this grand old hymn. It is effervescent and uplifting.

Although the melody is gently modified, this solo with piano displays both a sensitivity along with an elevated soaring quality expressing the need for divine interaction on the part of humanity.
