TRIBUTE TO STEPHEN FOSTER “A Medley of Six Favorites” arranged for brass quintet by Howard J. Buss. Stephen Collins Foster (1826-1864) is often referred to as “the father of American music.” Many of his songs serve as a window into the spirit of America in his day. Others are exquisitely sentimental. Whether or not one approves of the lyrics of his minstrel songs, the enduring beauty and vitality of his melodies cannot be denied. In addition to the 6 Foster songs in this arrangement, Buss interjects 2 other well-known melodies. The “First Call” bugle call is woven into the tapestry of Camptown Races” and “The Girl I Left Behind Me” serves as a partner song to “Ring, Ring, the Banjo.”
I. “Old Black Joe” (2’)
II. “Camptown Races” (1’40”)
III. “Beautiful Dreamer” (2’15”)
IV. “Old Folks at Home” also known as “Swanee River” (2’12”)
V. “Ring, Ring the Banjo” – “Oh, Susannah!” (2’41”)
The movements may be played individually or in smaller groupings. The total duration is about 11’ without pauses between the movements. Score & parts included. Grade V.

TRIPTYCH FOR SOLO CLARINET by David M. Sterrett is in 3 movements unified by similar compositional elements and motifs, but contrast in style and character. The first movement (Scherzo) jokes and jabs with jagged lines and snapping gestures. The second (Fantasy) is the emotional centerpiece of the work and contrasts the snarky character of the Scherzo with gentle lyricism and a melancholy tone. The third movement (Waltz) follows with its own unique style, a flashy and energetic waltz, joyous and playful in character. The music eventually builds up to a sudden and dramatic recall of the Scherzo’s main theme, bringing the piece full circle, and then ends in a wild frenzy. Grade VI. (15’) Score sample: Excerpts.pdf
Sound samples: Excerpt 1.mp3; Excerpt 2.mp3, Excerpt 3.mp3
RECOLLECTIONS for violin and percussion (one player: marimba, cymbal and snare drum) by Roger C. Vogel reflects the sadness in recalling tragedies and disappointments, as well as the pleasure in remembering triumphs, good fortune, and pleasant surprises. The percussion part calls for a marimba capable of sounding a low A, but optional lower notes are indicated for a five-octave instrument. Score and part is included. (7’) Grade V. Score sample: Excerpts.pdf
FIVE INTERMEZZI for solo piano by Roger C. Vogel. Although an intermezzo may be found between the acts of a play or an opera, it may also be an independent work. These five intermezzi each have a different character: dramatic, energetic, lyrical, expressive, and emphatic. The movements are Allegro con brio, Lento espressivo, Allegro ritmico, Adagio espressivo, and Allegro appassionato. They may be played individually or in smaller groups. Grade V. (13’30”) Score sample: Excerpts.pdf Sound samples: Excerpt 1.mp3; Excerpt 2.mp3; Excerpt 3.mp3; Excerpt 4.mp3; Excerpt 5.mp3
NINE BAGATELLES by Roger C. Vogel for solo piano. A bagatelle is a short piece of music, usually for piano. The name means "a short unpretentious instrumental composition" as a reference to the light style of a piece. Each of the nine bagatelles has a different mood, from lyrical and expressive to rhythmic and energetic. These delightful miniatures each are a bit over 2’ in duration and may be played individually or in smaller groups. (20’) Grade V.

FESTIVITIES for flute, horn and piano by Roger C. Vogel was written in 2018 for The Kitchen Sync trio. Celebrations, amusements, festivals, and other joyful occasions are events that enrich our lives.This work is inspired by five such delightful occasions: the merrymaking of a Carnival, the pleasant respite of an Interlude, the boisterous play of a Romp, the pleasure of a leisurely evening Promenade, and the capriciousness of an Escapade. Score and parts included. (14’30”) Grade V. Score samples: Excerpts.pdf
ON THE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT for solo horn by Howard J. Buss traverses a wide variety of atmospheres, from ranging from gentle, mysterious passages, to intense and powerful exclamations. Throughout there is a sense of mysticism, as if an incantation is taking place around the arrival of midnight. Various extended techniques enhance the traditional horn sound, such as stopped effects, simultaneous singing and playing, flutter tonguing, growling, etc. It may be performed as traditional concert piece, a theatre piece or as an hour-specific piece actually performed at midnight for the fun of it by oneself, or with a group of people. Score included. (4’53”) Grade V-VI. Score samples: Excerpts.pdf
"THE HAYDN" REFASHIONED for Bb trumpet and piano by Allen Molineux is a theme and variations based on the “Andante” of Franz Joseph Haydn's Trumpet Concerto. The title implies that the composer has approached the variations in a more modern (well, not up-to-date modern, just more so than late 18th Century) and playful vein. It should also be noted that while each variation is based on the opening theme itself, other parts of the Concerto's second movement materialize, as do brief cameo appearances of themes from the outer movements. Score and part included. (6’20”) Grade V. Sound samples: Excerpt 1.mp3, Excerpt 2.mp3, Excerpt 3.mp3 Score samples: Excerpts.pdf
From spring 2020:
DIVERGENCES for clarinet and viola by Howard J. Buss was written for clarinetist Allison Storochuk and violist Kirsten Weingartner Weiss. The 3 movements explore a wide array of moods and sonic atmospheres ranging from the mystical, to the contemplative, to soaring, vibrant passages: Recollections of Shared Times, Disparate Views, and Celebrations. The composer states, “The titles relate to a phenomenon that has long fascinated me: How is it that people such as siblings, who grow up in the same environment (home, family, teachers, and shared experiences), can turn out in later years to be very different from one another with their religious and political beliefs, preferences for food, travel, music, etc. This is addressed generally in the duo, which is designed to be musically solid without any extra-musical, programmatic connotations. However, I think the titles and general character of the music will connect with many listeners and may make them think about the evolution of their own personal relationships.” Score and parts are included. (12’) Grade V.
Score sample: Excerpts.pdf - Sound samples: Movement 1.mp3; Movement 2.mp3; Movement 3.mp3
EUPHONIC RHAPSODIES for solo euphonium by Howard J. Buss is in 3 movements that showcase the capabilities of the instrument without using extended techniques or extreme range. It can be played on either a three or a four-valve euphonium. Although this composition is suitable for advanced high school and college-level players, professional performers will appreciate its incisiveness and musical sophistication. In the first and last movements references are made to the legendary performer and teacher, Leonard Falcone. In Homage to Leonard his name is expressed rhythmically in Morse code is employed in a lively, tuneful way. It is also used in the cadenza of the third movement, Go! The title of the beautiful second movement is Ballad. One score is provided. (7’30”) Grade V. Score sample: Excerpts.pdf 
GEMTONES for two clarinets and bassoon (or bass clarinet) by Howard J. Buss was written for clarinetist Kathleen Mulcahy during the fall of 2019. A bass clarinet part is included as an alternative to the bassoon. The six short movements were inspired by the beauty of gemstones and exhibit a wide array of moods and sonic atmospheres ranging from the mystical, to the brilliant, vibrant passages: Ruby, Opal, Diamond in the Rough, Onyx, Garnet, and Sapphire. Score and parts are included.(12’10”) Grade V.
