Coney Island Rag
This lively, nostalgic piece will musically transport players and audience alike to the iconic amusement parks of turn-of -the-century Coney Island (near Brooklyn, New York). The sweet, cheerful sounds that flowed from the carousels and bandwagons of a time gone by infuse this characteristic, but level-appropriate work. Ragtime feel is achieved via accessible syncopations, chromatics that lay well on the instruments, and sectional form. Novel percussion, including a slide whistle, adds to the fun!

Convergence
With the main thematic material beginning in unison and quickly expanding into thick harmonies, this work moves even the younger ensemble into an expanded consciousness of contemporary composition. A slower middle section provides necessary contrasts and vertical sonorities that underscore the interaction of the melodic lines throughout. Performance tempo can be successfully adjusted to the performance levels of the ensemble. Convergence is a dramatic new vehicle! (duration 4:48)
