Four Plus Brass Series- for two Trumpets and two Trombones (with opt. Horn and Tuba for color). The introduction begins with an infectious motif which pictures a regal procession. The following section continues in the same flavor with new stately material, with a modulation the ensemble presents an intermission. Then the piece goes back to the material of the beginning. The next section becomes more harmonically diverse and builds more tension leading to a modulation where the song’s theme is presented in the trombones, then the trumpets. Coming to the Coda section an optional organ (and even congregation) gives a stately rendition of the famous Hymn To Joy..

Four Plus Brass Series- for two Trumpets and two Trombones (with opt. Horn and Tuba for color). Beginning in a robust and jubilant manner with unison statements in the voices. The trombones carry the tune with brief flourishes of punctuation in the trumpets. Then breaking into a duet in the trumpet and trombone in an imitative fabric, the piece gives over to the trumpets carrying the theme. The next section is slower and more harmonically divergent. Then once again a more vigorous manner like the beginning where the piece concludes with optional endings.

Four Plus Brass Series- for two Trumpets and two Trombones (with opt. Horn and Tuba for color). In Alla breve the trumpets begin the piece in exultation with counter-movement in the trombones passing through a maze of meter changes. The theme tends to be insolated by part, but does exchange between the voices in an imitative format. This format continues, only in a more harmonically full scoring. The second section is stronger in fabric and the voicing becomes more solid. This all leads up to a solid conclusion with a final statement of satisfaction.
