Woodwind Quintet (Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Horn, Bassoon) Duration: 6' Composed: 2012 Published by: Amy Mills Music, LLC 3 movements I. Seven Toes Down II. En Pointe III. Muddy Boots This charming suite has three short movements, each with its own character. The suite bursts open with breathless energy. Seven Toes Down is modal, in 7/8 time, with people dancing in bare feet on bare ground, so vigorously that it kicks up the dust. En Pointe opens with a lovely waltz, then it focuses in on the tiny, delicate movements of a ballerina high up on her toes. Muddy Boots is big strong guys, covered with dirt from a hard day of work, practicing one-upmanship. Different players have the chance to show what they can do, surrounded by their friends. Then we catch another glimpse of the ballerina before closing playfully with Seven Toes Down. Difficulty Level: 4 (Advanced) See composer website for audio sample.

The Ukrainian Suite for wind quintet dates from 1983 and is in three movements. In the opening Allegretto, there is a hint of minimalist techniques, where the unusual harmonic shifts will challenge the players to forget conventional cadences. Several parts share parallel rhythms in many places, while one part carries the melodic material. Similar principles can be seen at work in the Moderato con moto second movement, where persistent repeated notes accompany the melody. The third movement, also Moderato at the start, builds towards a final section where all five parts share very similar note patterns, and excitement is generated by the contrasting dynamics and the relentless drive of the rhythms. This quintet was originally published by Phylloscopus Publications in 2001 and set from the manuscript by C.M.M. Nex and F.H. Nex.Flute, Oboe, Clarinet in B flat and A, Horn in F and Bassoon. Score and 5 Parts included.Former Spartan Press Cat. No.: PP391.

Composer Reed A. Hanna writes, Red Lights! is a coming-of-age story about a young man and his attempt to find himself. In each of the three movements, the listener follows the young man on his journey through the exotic world of the red light district, which may at first seem to have an allure of excitement and novelty, but might end up being a mysterious realm of plausible scandal and ill-repute. The young man, blinded by his voracious desire to experience the unknown, encounters many things in his journey that are 'eye-opening' (to say the least). This eye-opening impression is bestowed on him most notably through his encounter with 'Madame', a character who offers the more worldly perspective that is the object of the young man's desire - or so he thinks..
