I Have Decided To Follow Jesus
$37.00
Intended for students with one or more years of playing experience, this arrangement features a very interesting but not difficult countermelody for low instruments, and will sound full even with a minimum of players. The main theme is featured twice, first in concert Bb with the melody in treble parts, and then in concert Eb with melody in lower instruments, along with a creative obbligato for upper instruments. The harmonies include an occasional chromatic treatment setting it apart from many traditional young band arrangements. Rhythm includes half, quarter and occasional eighth notes.

Jesus’ Hands Were Kind Hands
$11.00Three Plus Flutes for three soprano with opt. 4th/ob. with alto and bass & piccolo. The first phrase is stated in the top voice, then adding the second voice, further adding the third voice until all voices are in agreement. The next section moves in a rather jaunty motion going through various meter changes. The middle section is stated with the tune in the top voice with accompaniment figures presented in a syncopated manner. All this happening in a modulated key. Further modulation takes place with a motive stated in the second voice, followed the third, then first until it settles into a final statement of kindness.

He Is Born, The Divine Christ Child
$11.00Three Plus Flutes for three soprano with opt. 4th/ob. with alto and bass & piccolo. The piece gins in a spritely duet in the upper voices and reverses roles with the lower voices carrying the melody and duet lines. All four voices now join in a smooth, serene fashion until it gains dynamic and harmonic strength. A modulation upward with the tune in voice two, and an obbligato-like movement in part one, while the lower parts underpin with a simplistic, though active line. In the last section the parts become more active and excitement abounds until a final flourish establishes the end.
