Fantasia - This quartet has a classical sound throughout and is richly polyphonic. It
is organized in ABA format, opening and closing in a dreamy mood. The middle section is contrastingly playful.
Meditazione - This short, meditative piece builds gradually to a tense climax, then ends in peaceful repose.
Sonata Antiqua - Reminiscent of some of Giovanni Gabrieli's brass music, this substantial work features plenty of
polyphony, a wide dynamic range, and changes of tempo and meter. Little Prelude & Fugue - The prelude is very
short but powerful and highly ornamented.

• The long subject of the fugue gives players a chance to show off their skills

This selection for brass quartet is based on popular civil war tunes of the 19th
century. As well as transcribing the favorite tunes of the North and South for a young ensemble, Dorothy Kemp
has included two different medleys based on more Civil War tunes which would be of interest to any level ensemble.
A virtual anthology of American Civil War music, this set of score and parts is a bargain and a great way to
introduce young players to chamber music.
