Christmas Chorale Prelude & Fugue
$44.00
Written in a chorale fugue style (alla J.S. Bach), this two-part work is based on the old Scandinavian carol How Brightly Shines The Morning Star. The first section features the woodwinds with an interesting obligato over the brass theme. The entire fugue section is built over the augmented bass theme, making this a true “chorale fugue.”

Jesus, Lover Of My Soul
$11.00Three Plus Flutes for three soprano with opt. 4th/ob. with alto and bass. An opening with an active top voice giving over to the lower voices doing the same. Then in block harmonic movement the pieces moves along with subtle harmonic shifts. The middle section continues in much the same fashion with dynamic shifts. The next area is the same fashion only this time with the lower voices carrying the activity and the upper voice in more solemn movement. The final section is more active with the top voice using material from the introduction and slows to repose.

The Master Hath Come
$11.00Three Plus Flutes for three soprano with opt. 4th/ob. with alto and bass & piccolo. An introduction using unrelated material leads the tune presented in voice two, supported by harmonies in the lower voices, then an obbligato-like motion added by the upper voice. A modulation upward makes room for a duet in the upper lines, later joined by the lower voices in a contrapuntal fashion. The final section becomes more vigorous and imitative until a solid, declamatory ending.
