Score and Parts-Sydney Hodkinson has been active as a teacher and composer in America since 1963. Mosaic written in 1964 is in three parts all based on a harmonic nucleus played by the full ensemble in the opening two measures. The first partdeals with long angular melodies and a short repeated fragment. Part 2 contains slow expressive lines and Part 3 taxes the brass players by containing several very quick disjunct opints culminating in rapid double-tounged chordsremeniscent of the opening.
