Philip Glass, move over. Here's my first minimalist work, happily not in a key, but atonal, and with an odd meter: 7/8. My piece starts quietly, builds inexorably to a huge climax, and then subsides, as notes drop out one by one, leaving the bare texture with which the piece began.

Alfred Music - Digital Sheet Music #00-PC-0000831_wpTBEBC. Published by Alfred Music - Digital Sheet Music (AX.00-PC-0000831_WPTBEBC). UPC: 038081270258.Syncopated brass and driving percussion open this sparkling concert selection. The rhythmic woodwind melody that enters after the brief introduction is set in the Dorian mode, a tonality that dominates the remainder of the piece. The very prominent percussion section gives way to a more delicate woodblock, triangle and tambourine ostinato that accompanies the light hearted second theme. Trumpets now take over the melody and the style hints at the early Hispanic roots of Chico Hills. A lyrical theme in the original Dorian mode highlights the slower middle section that builds to a dramatic climax before returning to the opening Allegro and a short exciting conclusion.

Violin Duet Violin - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1395327 Composed by Ulrich Lehensteiner. 21st Century,Classical,Contemporary. 75 pages. Ulrich Lehensteiner #978795. Published by Ulrich Lehensteiner (A0.1395327). The Double-Sonata is a trio-setup-piece (two violins and piano) all about duality and contrast. Led by not just one violin but two, the roles of leading voice and accompaniment constantly switch between the three instruments.All three movements feature two strongly contrasting themes and each of the three approaches the themes' development in a unique way.The first movement's tension resolves in a kind of anti-climax, a moment of greatest fragility after the built-up tension, which then returns to a (almost) note-perfect reprise of the exposition, to show that in the end nothing has changed.The second movement even intensifies the struggle between the two themes, with ultimately one of them taking over.In the third movement, an energetic waltz, no effort is even made to unify it's two themes, they just stand block-like against each other.

Piano Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1031063 Composed by Caleb Gomes. 20th Century,Contemporary,Holiday,Love,Romantic Period. Score. 5 pages. Caleb Gomes #2869147. Published by Caleb Gomes (A0.1031063). This solo piano piece is inspired by the emotions one gets on their first few weeks in a new relationship. It starts with a pure yet mysterious melody played timidly. The melody grows as the relationship does. It goes into a lively feel and adds spirit and texture to the piece. It rolls into a moving section that adds chromaticism and texture to the piece that builds to a harsh yet powerful climax. This fades away back to our original melody, this time infused with the theme from the lively section. The piece ends on a major seventh, just the way it starts, with a sense of longing and anticipation.
