Karsten Fundal's Figure And Ground Study 2 for 3 Guitars (1994).
Figure and Ground Study 2 is a title which shares its name with a series of drawings by M.C. Escher. The drawings have light motives on a dark background - yet at the same time exactly the opposite! The dark background becomes the foreground and the light foreground becomes the background. One sees either the dark or the light figures, but it is impossible to perceive both figures as the foreground at once. In this musical work, various complimentary scales appear as both the foreground and the background. Karsten Fundal

This happy, joyous medium-tempo gospel swing with a truly sunny disposition takes the listener in immediately and just does not let go! An animated full-ensemble introduction leads the way to the sun-beamy, chirrupy melody, at first presented by trumpet and alto over a stop-time rhythm section. The entire sax section takes the melody next, while the brass offer uplifting commentary by way of stop-time chords. Plunger-muted trumpet is featured at the solo section, with inspiring backgrounds from the ensemble; this section may be repeated as desired to feature additional solos. Some deft linear writing follows the solo section, providing exciting dialog throughout the ensemble before leading up to an intriguing and effective pyramid that leaps forward into the stirring shout chorus. A clever tag alights on the ending plagal cadence, offering a place for the plunger-muted Trumpet to shine above the final chord. Gather ‘Round is sure to bring a smile, and destined to be a mainstay!

Playgrounds are full of children having fun together. No matter their background, the laughter and shrieks of joy are the same as they run and play. Playground Games by Cooper Ford is a playful musical portrait of this experience. In the first section, the children gather for their game as the melody is supported by building rhythmic energy. The second section depicts another game in a round. Finally, it's time to go home, but only after one quick moment to finish! This piece uses only the notes of a D major scale and simple rhythms. Parts are doubled in second violin/viola and cello/bass. (2:00).
