As the first movement of Suite Historique, this versatile work is adaptable to many combinations of instruments. Designed to remind the listener of the Renaissance style madrigal, in a modern setting, it is a multi-versed composition that even contains the fa-la-la section.
Rondo Energico is the fourth and final movement of Four Pieces for Trumpet Ensemble. This work was commissioned by Richard B. Lehman, who at the time, was the Trumpet Professor at Illinois State University and the person with whom the composer studied while in Graduate school. It was premiered by the I.S.U. Trumpet Ensemble in the fall of 1982. It is written for 5 trumpets.
As the third movement of Suite Historique, this versatile work is adaptable to many combinations of instruments. It is dance-like in character with a slight sense of urgency. It is an excellent tool for teaching the rondo form as this piece follows an A, A1, B, A2, C, A3 pattern. Each time the A section appears, it is slightly different than before.
Designed for beginning level instrumentalists, Partners n' Sidekicks was written for a couple of my former students whose musical energies were contagious. Though both very independent players (a skill that served them well as they progressed), they worked very well together, each challenging the other to be better. So it is with this piece that allows each performer to present the musical line as well as work together (in harmony) as the piece progresses.
As the second movement of Suite Historique, this versatile work is adaptable to many combinations of instruments. It is designed to be very introspective and thought provoking; a piece that suggests a sense of longing or of personal loss.
The title of this piece, Three and Three-Quarters, is not meant as some hidden cryptic message, but simply that of three performers getting together for some musical fun in three-quarter time. It is a lighthearted work, hence the subtitle "A Trivial Trifle."
This energetic work is dance-like in character with a touch of frivolity. It brings to mind a more contemporary setting of the moresca or Renaissance masque. It is also the third movement of the trumpet suite Suite Divertissement with the other movements being Marche Heroique and Vignette.
Novelette, as the title would suggest, is a small story with several distinctive chapters. As a result, this composition is a set of five variations on an original theme and each with their own character.
Moments Majestique is a versatile duet that works well for any occasion. It has a "royal" or "regal" air about it, and is adaptable to almost any instrumental combination or cross-over. It is designed for the intermediate level performer, but can be played by almost any level performer as ranges are small and rhythms reasonably simple.
Scherzo Diabolique is a diabolical display of notes and rhythms designed to showcase the technical skills of the trio who performs it. It is a relentless foray into a facile-fingered fold. While initially sounding sinister, it takes on a light-hearted respite during the oasis that is the relative major. Not to be outdone, the diabolical nature returns with a vengeance to send this piece to its furious conclusion. The piece is dedicated to Mary Kay Godfrey, who provided the materials necessary to complete this composition.
