Standing On The Promises

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.

This trio begins with a joyful piano introduction which leads into a three part harmonization of the instrumental parts. The second section is a lilting (waltz feeling) in block harmonization and then goes into a bell-tone rendition of the tune. A brief transition in a slower, expressive style comes to repose where it concludes in the joyful style that the piece began.

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.

A woodwind trio for flute; unaccompanied. Like a stately march the introduction uses a motif gravitating through several harmonic changes giving way to a modified thematic presentation with all three parts being in active counterpoint,and the tune passed about all the parts. The tune then moves about in a hocket fashion keeping all parts busy. The final section is somewhat in keeping with the first section coming to a solid “Praise Him” conclusion.
