Life, Joy and Peace (Solo Bb/C)
$9.95
Based on the wonderful old gospel song, “‘Tis so Sweet to Trust in Jesus” by Louisa M.R. Snead (1850-1917) and William James Kirkpatrick (1838-1921), this solo with instrumental ensemble accompaniment features one verse and two choruses from the song.
After a brief introduction based on intervals from the song, the soloist plays an original melody by the composer prior to a light and energetic rendition of the first chorus. The verse appears in a more sustained style by the soloist, accompanied by a smooth, chorale-like background.
The second chorus is played by the soloist while the opening original theme is juxtaposed underneath. The introduction is reintroduced prior to an ascending finale by the soloist.

Only A Sinner
$10.00A woodwind quartet for Flute, oboe, and two clarinets with optional parts for flute and alto sax. Plus a set of fifth parts for bassoon or bass clarinet can allow for the piece being a quintet. The first statement is in the clarinets where it leads into a full ensemble passing the lines amongst the parts. A delightful little segue leads to a modulation where the tune is in the lower lines alternated with flourishes in the flutes. This Alternating texture carries on for some time. Then the tempo picks up for a vibrant exclamation where the theme is once again bantered about where it makes one final boast and concludes.
