Declaration
by Brian Appleby
This is a three part composition designed to offer maximum flexibility in a variety of teaching and performing situations.
Every instrument has all three parts on their page, providing possibilities for many different instrumentations and student groupings. It is expected that the piece will be played most often by small groups, although it also works for full class warmup or study.
The emphasis is the first and last sections is on triads moving in a block, fanfare-like style. The middle section of the piece is a canon.
One effective teaching technique with this material is to distribute it to the entire class, then allow students to form themselves into smaller groups of various sizes and instrumentations to develop their own unique performance.
Tempo, dynamic, and style indications have been deliberately omitted so that each group can make their own decisions about these matters
