This work is an exciting piece for the brass quintet. It is set in three movements, each with its own mood and character. The opening movement Fanfare and March Fantasy is a fantasia on J.J. Mouret's famous Rondeau and has the melody alternating metres between 6/8 and 2/4. The second movement is Meditation and Chorale in which a haunting theme floats throughout the ensemble. Chant and Alleluja is particularly creative stating the chant theme in the opening measures and then moving to an energetic allegro vivo in shifting metres, particularly in 7/8.
