Fanfare For Thanksgiving Day

This trio for Easter renders a simple and gentle movement that is continually flowing with contrapuntal lines that exudes wonderment- truly a piece that causes reflection. There is activity in each of the parts and the melodic material is passed around for interest. If you want a piece for reflection this might well be the piece for you.

This flute trio with piano accompaniment is presented in a solid, determined manner. It makes a definitive statement in the “Power in the Blood” of Christ. The middle section changes meter while maintaining the character of the opening.

A flute 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 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.

For three like instruments, accompanied by piano, the piece is largely homophonic in nature. There are various phrases that are rhythmically altered for interest-active, yet sublime.
