Commissioned by the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra this concertino was originally conceived as a part of a complete educational concertprogram. Four concertini each featuring a different instrumental family within the chamber orchestra are played in succession to demonstrate the characteristic sounds of those instruments. The music is thematically related but not identical to the Concertino for Chamber Orchestra (parts available on rental from the publisher) which serves as the program's closer demonstrating all of theorchestral sections playing together. This program is suggested by the composer for orchestra concerts however each instrumental concertino can beperformed individually and stands quite effectively on its own as a short chamber recital piece.

for Oboe and String Quartet-Frederick Fox (1931-2011) acquired both his master's degree in music (1957) and doctoral degree in music composition (1959) from Indiana University then began an odyssey that carried him to various teaching and foundation posts around the United States. Fox notes that his music continued to break down the diatonic structure to make it more chromatic but that he doesn't consider tonality when composing. Upon the Reedy Stream is a perfect example of his style incorporating chromatic lines and other non-diatonic tonal languages.

Wind Ensemble Full Score-Five Elizabethan Dances is drawn from the music that sets the scene and provides the accompaniment for the Ballroom Scene from Don Freund's Romeo and Juliet: A Shakespearean Music Drama for singing actors and piano. The style ofthe dances is freely drawn from dances found in the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book (music from ca. 1562 to 1612) spiced up with changing meters and chromatic twists of melody and harmony reflecting a more recent musical language. Eachof the dances represents a pivotal scene-within-a-scene.

A Chamber Music America Commission for Lincoln Trio premiered on WFMT radio and at Chamber Music America at Bryant Park's summer concert series.
