How Firm A Foundation
Opening with a fanfare, the first section is in block harmonization with some moving lines. It then moves into melodic statements in the lower instruments with supported obiligatti in the trumpets and horn. The structure again becomes solid in scoring only to return with similar trumpet obbligati. The obbligati is next introduced in the lower voices and then increased rhythmic activity in all voices builds to a solid ending.

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.

Give Me This Mountain
A standard brass quintet with optional trumpet for horn. As one might expect the piece is cheerful from beginning to end. It opens with rhythmic patterns where the first statement of the tune is presented by the trombone. The chorus is harmonically in block format where it comes to an end. NOW, something different the second trumpet and tuba present a simple accompaniment while all the other voice, yes voices, sing the words and melody of the song! A brief conclusion, a modulations and the piece returns to the texture of the earlier statement. The a bit of tongue and check statements and a very conclusive ending.
