Music for Oboe, Percussion, and Piano is a set of six short, highly contrasting movements for oboe and friends. Tonality, atonality, and tone colors are explored in logical and clear forms. A nod to Berlioz's dalliance in the macabre comes to light by considering the movements as scenes of a Halloween nightmare. They can provide a light, humorous departure from the more serious recital fare.

Demise and Horizontal Walk

For the more serious minded, a performance listing for Music for Oboe, Percussion, and Piano may include only movement numbers with style/tempo labels. "Just the facts," a bit clinical but perhaps useful.
