Veneration for Orchestra, Vivace Press, 2004
I. Blessings: Gift of Blood
II. Charity - Caress
III. Grace: Pleasure Heart
The first movement, Blessings: Gift of Blood, features flowing melodies, pulses of rhythm and energy, and alternating currents of intensity and release. Charity - Caress is an idyll, a tender evocation that began life as a work for cello and voice. The fugal and imitative elements reflect those intertwined voices in a dialogue both intimate and playful. Grace: Pleasure Heart is a rondo for orchestra, beginning with a yearning theme reminiscent of the first movement and a relentlessly driving undercurrent and percussive piano part. The next section features contrapuntal interplay based on an expansive rising melody. After a brief return of the opening material, these elements are combined in a spirited frolic.
