I Love To Tell The Story
$32.00
The piece begins with a sweeping introduction. The theme is then passed through the various sections of the band with counterlines throughout. The second verse shifts to a sensitive scene first in the flutes, then the horns and saxes, finally expanding to full band. The ending resolves to a sense of calm.

A modulation upward makes room for a duet in the upper lines, later joined by the lower voices in a contrapuntal fashion. The final section becomes more vigorous and imitative until a solid, declamatory ending.

It Is Well
$12.00Brass choir scored for four trumpets (opt horn) two trombones, baritone BC/TC and tuba. This entire piece is one of serenity, gentleness and great affect. The introduction is in the lower voices producing a rich sound and sense of expectation. The trumpets add in on the melody with long lines of expression, and then the lower voices offer a response in like manner. The next section increases in movement and dynamic until it modulates to a new key center. The phrases now alternate between the low voices in an almost antiphonal fashion. Another modulation elevates the urgency of the piece and the trumpets carry the entire load throughout this section. The rest of the instruments then bolster the ensemble giving increased strength. The pieces quiets and becomes reflective and then settles with an “all is well.”

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.
