Four simple piano duets of equal difficulty in dance form. Dorothy Pilling was a much loved figure in the Mancunian musical world, known to generations of young pianists for her imaginative piano teaching pieces. Most famous for classic 'Harmonization of Melodies at the Keyboard' series, Dorothy Pilling also composed many piano duets and solos, as well as songs and other works. According to the Voxturturis blog:

'Her music remains fresh and light; characterised by strong melodies and late romantic harmony which she improvised well and the pieces are, in the main, short. Instantly appealing to players and audiences alike, most of her work shows a high degree of compositional craft.'.

This great composition is intended to capture the integrity and intensity of Thomas Edison. Opening with an alternating woodwind quintet- brass choir section, it quickly moves into a fanfare and theme exposition. Warm rich harmonies underscore a lyric trumpet solo which begins the slower middle section. EXCELLENT!

The dignity and pageantry of so much British music for orchestra is cap­tured in this solid work for strings. The straightforward melodic lines are supported by clean, full harmonies; and the polyphonic texture is highlight­ed in a contrasting key in the middle portion of the work. Strong lines and rhythms bring the piece to a solid conclusion.String editing by Amy Rosen.
