At Calvary
$9.95
SMS: Brass quartet for two trumpets and two trombones (opt horn and BHTC). The opening section follows very much the manner of the original hymn with harmonic counterpoint to add interest. With a brief modulation the piece goes into a more solemn style reminiscent of the opening section. The third section is in a march style leading into the final section which establishes a sense of conclusion.

Holy, Holy, Holy (unacc)
$7.00A flute quartet which begins with a Q/A format and then breaks into a chordal structure with some gentle modifications. This format continues until it moves into a modulation where the piece once again uses a Q/A design- keeping the piece on the move. This flowing movement continues until it modulates into a section that is grand and declamatory. After some unctuated accompaniment the piece makes a final declamation then lies into repose.

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.
