Beethoven’ s Greeting is geschreven ter gelegenheid van het 400-jarig bestaan van de Canadese stad Quebec. Philip Sparke schreef deze fantasie, gebaseerd op Beethovens canon Freu’ dich des Lebens, als muzikale groet aandeze stad. Beethoven’s Greeting heeft een langzame inleiding die is gebaseerd op de canon, dan volgt een levendig Vivo, dat later dient als discant van de canon - die terugkomt in de zang van het optionele koor (SATB).De melodie is ook verweven in de orkestratie.Be ethoven’s Greeting wurde zur 400-Jahrfeier der kanadischen Stadt Quebec geschrieben. Philip Sparke wählte für seinen musikalischen Gruß den Kanon Freu dich des Lebens, den Beethoven auf Wunsch eines nach Quebec ausgewanderten befreundeten Musikers zum Andenken geschrieben hatte. Der Kanon in Sparkes Fantasie kann optional von einem SATB-Chor gesungen werden, die Melodie ist auch in der Orchestrierung enthalten. L’année 2008 marque le 400e anniversaire de la fondation de la ville de Québec (1608-2008) au Canada. Pour célébrer cet événement, la Musique des Voltigeurs de Québec, une unité d’infanterie de la force terrestre des Forces canadiennes, a fait appel au compositeur Philip Sparke pour l’écriture de deux œuvres de concert (disponibles sur un compact disc édité spécialement pour cette occasion). Philip Sparke a composé Sounds of the Saint Lawrence (Échos du Saint-Laurent), une suite de chants traditionnels québécois, et cette fantaisie libre sur le canon Freu’ dich des Lebens de Ludwig van Beethoven. L’histoire de ce canon est absolument fascinante. En1822, Théodore Frédéric Molt, un professeur, auteur, pianiste et organiste allemand - ancien soldat dans l'armée napoléonienne ayant combattu Waterloo - arrive Québec. En 1825, il retourne en Europe afin de parfaire sa formation. Au cours de son séjour, il rend visite Beethoven. Quelques jours plus tard, il fait parvenir une lettre au compositeur sourd en incluant une feuille blanche sur laquelle il lui demande d'écrire « du fond de son grand cœur » un souvenir « qui restera pour moi, une distance qu'il me faudra presque 3000 heures pour parcourir, un document éternellement précieux. »Beethoven accepte et, le 16 décembre 1825 (jour de ses cinquante-cinq ans), il présente Théodore Molt le canon Freu’ dich des Lebens Le manuscrit est actuellement conservé dans une collection canadienne.Beethoven s Greeting (“La signature de Beethoven”) débute avec une introduction lente basée sur le canon. S’ensuit un Vivo qui sera repris ultérieurement sous la forme d’un déchant la mélodie du canon. Le thème du canon est chanté par le chœur quatre voix (SATB) optionnel (AMP 243-050), mais la mélodie est également présente dans l’orchestration.

Harmonic Gallery, commissioned by Network for New Music for premiere at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, is a musical analog of a museum exhibition in which paintings, sometimes created hundreds of years apart, are shown in close proximity. There are three movements, surrounded by musical frames. Minuetto is reminiscent of the early nineteenth century when the minuet form started to escape its rigid formalities. Angst recalls the early twentieth century when tonality supposedly started to crumble. It is based on famous harmonies used by Richard Wagner and Arnold Schoenberg. Dance is unashamedly post-minimal and post-modern, and celebrates repetition and cadences. The four frames comment on the harmonies of the movements that they surround.
The three movements are very loosely related to three paintings in the collection: The Gordon Family, by Henry Benbridge, ca. 1762; Final Assault upon Fort Fisher, North Carolina, by Xanthus Smith, ca. 187273; Three Wise Men Greeting Entry into Lagos, by Kehinda Wiley, 2008.
