Steven Winteregg’s suite of three Latin American-inspired pieces, Danzas, is a synthesis of, and modern American take on, the rhythmic and melodic styles found in the lively dance music of Argentina, Brazil, and Cuba. The first movement tango, titled “Argentina,” began as the stand-alone composition Fireside Tango and can be performed with or without bass and percussion. “Brazil” and “Cuba” were added in 2010 to round out the suite.
Dunbariana, composed for trombone, banjo, piano, and narrator by Steven Winteregg, is based on the poetry of celebrated African-American poet and Dayton native Paul Laurence Dubar, Its four movements are named for the poems that inspired them. Winteregg's choice of instrumentation, harmonies, and melodies are designed to capture the feeling of 19th century American life. Narrated by the noted Dunbar scholar Dr. Herbert Woodward Martin, this commission was paid for by the Tangeman Sacred Music Foundation.
Raymond Horton's arrangement of Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence is the first of two works for trombone quartet. The biblical text has been set to numerous melodies; the one in this arrangement, the French medieval tune known as Picardy, is perhaps the most well-known. Horton's version sets the melody three different ways, the final being an adaptation of the common Gustav Holst setting.
