Ensembles For All (Trio version)

This trio begins with a simple rendition of the melody supported by the lower voices and then goes into light imitation of the melodic motifs. The second statement passes the tune around the parts with brief embellishment by the remaining parts and then concludes on a strong chord with piano under-pining.

A clarinet trio that expresses the joy of redemption through melodic embellishment, some trills, and harmonic changes. The hymn tune, “Redeemed”, is passed around amongst the parts of this unaccompanied trio.

This saxophone trio is presented in an exciting, straight forward fashion; moving continually in a statement of joy and revelry. It ends on a high note of praise.

A woodwind trio for flute; unaccompanied. Like a stately march the introduction uses a motif gravitating through several harmonic changes giving way to a modified thematic presentation with all three parts being in active counterpoint,and the tune passed about all the parts. The tune then moves about in a hocket fashion keeping all parts busy. The final section is somewhat in keeping with the first section coming to a solid “Praise Him” conclusion.
