[Trombone-l] Christ The Lord for Brass Quintet

[Retiredprof55]

I would like to invite you to examine my most recent work for brass  
quintet, “Chorale Prelude on Christ, The Lord, Has Risen Today”. This  
Chorale Prelude is in the form of a fantasia as it uses phrases from  
this hymn interspersed with a lot of free material. It can serve as  
either a prelude or postlude. The tuba uses a syncopated eighth note  
rhythm during the sustained notes at the beginning. This pattern then  
dominates the last third of the piece and it evokes visions of Widor's  
Toccata. The duration is 3' and the difficulty level is moderate. You  
can sample this work and my other compositions and arrangements by

music”.

Thank you for considering my music.
