Piccolos In The Pub

Piccolos In The Pub consists of three movements of Celtic flavor featuring a pair of piccolos, but giving ample voice to the rest of the choir. The piece opens with the piccolos playing The Jiggered Piccolo, a jig that builds to involve the entire choir, then moves to the lower flutes before returning to the full group, where the piccolos lead to a driving finish. Calm intercedes in the form of Glenwood Air, a beautiful and peaceful air to which the piccolos add subtle frosting. Friday Afternoon closes the piece with a wild, happy, and driving jig, in which the exhilaration is only briefly interrupted by rush-hour traffic. Piccolos lead the charge as the choir careens intothe weekend with a flourish.
