A Klezmer Wedding is a set of four dances, newly-composed but based on traditional models. The Doina is an expressive chant for three successive soloists; it twists and turns with the wailing lament of a shepherd's pipe. Next follows the Hora, a slow Rumanian dance in three with a mood that reflects the wedding's solemn vows. A Chusidl, with a moderate speed and bouncy rhythms, gets the party to the dance floor. The concluding Freylach (happy, but still in a minor key!) takes the bride, groom, and guests to the edge of frenzy. Titles: Chusidl * Doina * Hora * Freylach.

The theme Kommet, ihr Hirten, or Come, All Ye Shepherds, first presented in the style of a classical swing waltz, is followed by a tutti variation of the melody in 4/4 time, then by a tenor saxophone solo, and a return to the opening theme. The arrangement for saxophone quartet (AATBar) by Eberhard Michaely is written at a medium swing tempo.

Angels We Have Heard on High, a popular Christmas song, is likely a traditional French carol. The lyrics refer to the Gospel of Luke's account of the birth of Christ. In that rendition, shepherds note that the newborn child is surrounded by a chorus of angels. The chorus of Angels We Have Heard on High features a memorable cascading effect of notes on the text Gloria in excelsis Deo, Latin for Glory to God in the highest. In this setting of the popular Christmas favorite, the melodic material has been carefully arranged for four saxophones (SATBar) by Bill Perconti.
