Udow-Old News OS

Originally composed for piccolo trumpet, this work has its historical roots in the military traditions of the "Ruffles & Flourishes" from the American Revolutionary War 201 years earlier; the work juxtaposes traditional march-like rhythms with twelve tone lyrical melodies; the optional percussion part calls for: low med. & high pitched sn. drs. & chimes; ideal for a percussionist or trumpeter who, in recital, wishes to put together repertory showing the "demilitarization of the trumpet and drum".
