The Eagle Soars Again is a celebration of the resurgence of the bald eagle as a viable species.  It is a solo for english horn (which, in a sense) plays the role of the bald eagle.  The chorus plays an equally important role, uttering the words "Eagle" or "Bald Eagle" in close to fifty Native American languages, honoring people who have honored the bald eagle for countless generations.  Also very important is the percussion.  The work begins as a lament (for an almost extinct species) and ends triumphantly, celebrating its renewed health and vigor.

Tea For Three

Alto Sax Ensemble

An arrangement of a 19th century cornet showpiece.  This version is scored for three solo trumpets, but can be performed for one or two as well.  The trumpets are scored with a standard distribution (high, medium and low parts) as well as a mixed version where the three trumpets have more or less equal parts.  The Enthusiast was recorded by the U.S. Marine Corp Band in 1894, presumably by Jules Levy, one of the most prominent cornettists of his era.  Levy  may also have written the work.

The Enthusiast

Originally, "Bring A Torch, Jeannette, Isabella" was not a Christmas song, but rather a dance tune intended for the French nobility.  It is thought to have been composed by the French composer, Marc-Antoine Charpentier (1643 â€“1704).  Its melodies are some of the most beautiful in all of the Christmas literature.
