Divine Love (Solo Bb, C)

This piece would serve well as a meditation. Beginning with a quiet Celtic lilt, the center section is stronger and bolder. After several bell effects, the piece returns to the mood of the beginning.

This solo with piano makes a straight forward statement of the tune followed by a contrasting section using a new counter melody. It then returns to the opening theme.

This flute solo begins with the piano playing a gentle motif of the theme and then joined in with the solo line playing the theme in a straight forward fashion. The theme is now stated in a modified manner while the soloist exudes a moving obbligato line which adds more excitement to the piece. The piece concludes with the latter section of the first section and then settles into a solemn repose.

This solo piece with piano is presented in a straight-forward manner for the younger player with some altered pitches for interest.

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.
