Spirit of God, Decend Upon My Heart
A standard brass quintet with optional trumpet for horn. The piece opens with a solo trumpet and gradually adds voices until it leads up to a modulation where the theme is now in the lower voices with gentle harmonic shifts. The upper voices respond with more motion until things are met with another modulation. This new section is more stayed until another modulation greets yet another modulation with the parts all intertwining amongst themselves and then… a solemn conclusion.

Hallelujah! We Shall Rise
A standard brass quintet with optional baritone for a sextet. The introduction starts in the tuba and then adds more voices as you would expect- rising! The tune is now bantered about between the upper voices and then lower ones. Modulation! And the Q&A game continues. Another modulation and the tempo suddenly changes to a slower, expressive one with the French horn featured. As before the Q&A continues. Another modulation and an “a tempo” where the piece now in full ensemble starts lower and softer and continually adds activity and pitch raising until a vigorous conclusion.

Victory In Jesus
A standard brass quintet with optional baritone for a sextet A mixture of textures opens the piece where the theme is first presented in the low brass. The upper brass present the tune in the chorus while the lower brass introduce a counterline. A brief transition leading up to a modulation where the second statement of the tune is a duet then shifting to the theme in the lower brass as was done earlier. Now, all join in as a trio in the upper voice with a counterline in the lower ones. The conclusion takes motivic lines and passes them around the ensemble where it comes to a vibrant end.

Christ Arose
Scored for traditional brass quintet, an optional bartione part can be used to expand the piece to a sextet. After an opening upper brass fanfare, the lower parts present the theme in solemn fashion with further extended fanfares from the upper lines. The middle section reverses the stylistic assignments only to be given back to the opening styles. The with a powerful stacking of parts the piece concludes in a triumphant chord.
