SHENANDOAH
"...A colorful, lush setting with contrasts of texture and modulations that keep the (tune) fresh and energetic." "...extremely attractive and useful, requiring a minimum of rehearsal time." (Olcott) demonstrates his usual expert arranging skill in providing as much variety and melodic interest as possible in the inner parts while rotating the melody among the players."
ITG Journal, December, 1990, page 27
HALLELUJAH from Messiah
...a very valuable piece to own. ...a welcomed work for trumpet ensembles. Very popular for audiences everywhere, trumpeters are fortunate to have this piece now for our instrument. With relatively little rehearsal time or preparation, the adaptation may be received with thunderous acclamation.
