Steele's superb song-cycle Autumn Sequence was written for the pupils of Stockport Grammar School, and is scored for speaker, solo voices, chorus, flute or piccolo or recorder, tubular bells, handbells, organ pedal and piano, being the rather idiosyncratic resources then available at the school. It was first performed on October 3rd 1969 in the schools Hallam Hall, where the composer had been responsible for the specification of the recently installed organ. Douglas Steele himself played the piano part in his own inimitable style extending and improvising the cadenzas between the movements. A recording is available on Campion Cameo 2040/1 featuring Richard Baker narrating and choirs from Carlisle Cathedral, with John Turner on recorder.

Autumn Sequence can be heard on the album Autumn Sequence: The Music of Douglas Steele and his circle.

Autumn in the Park reflects the beauty of the warm days, cool nights and vivid colors of this favorite time of the year. Beginning at an easy walking tempo (Andante), the opening represents a stroll through the park, relaxing and reflective followed by a dance-like section (Allegretto) of happy children playing in the park. Contrasting tonal colors and dynamic contrasts are featured as melodies are shared between woodwinds and brass with the careful addition of percussion. Autumn in the Park is appropriate at any season for concerts or festivals.

Legend of the “Brown Mountain Lights”. Composed by Joseph Benjamin Earp. Set of Score and Parts. 15+16+2+8+8+8+2+2+2+2+2+2+4+4+4+2+2+3+3+3+2+4+1+1+1+1+1+3 pages. Duration 5 minutes, 11 seconds. Carl Fischer Music #CPS254. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.CPS254).

PROGRAM NOTES As We Search: Legend of the Brown Mountain Lights is inspired by the many ghost stories that have come from the mysterious occurrence of lights on Brown Mountain (Burke County, North Carolina). These mysterious phenomena appear during evenings in autumn. Many have seen the lights, but the exact cause remains a mystery. The origin of the lights has inspired numerous legends. As We Search: Legend of the Brown Mountain Lights focuses on one legend from the nineteenth century. After a local woman went missing, though murder was suspected, villagers engaged in a search of the mountain. Having never been found, it is said the search continues, and ghostly echoes of the search lights can still be seen on Brown Mountain to this day. NOTES TO CONDUCTOR The duration of the composition is five minutes at the marked tempo. Careful attention should be given to articulations, dynamic changes and phrasing throughout the work. The entire work is based on the idea first stated by the bells in m. 12. Each time the idea is restated, stronger development occurs around it building to m. 74. Attention should be given to the dissonance that resolves in mm. 5-6, 9-10, 17-18, 21-22, 41-42, 45-46, 76-77 and 80-81. The climax of the piece is m. 81, representing the moment the villagers think they have found the lost woman. Measure 82 to the end continues a fading trend as if people are forgetting about the legend of the Brown Mountain Lights. Measure 110 carrying into m. 111 is meant to be unresolved. Even though the legend has faded over time, the lights still exist As We Search..
