Each movement of this composition instrumentally reflects several of the different manners in which the human voice produces sound and becomes a vehicle of communication.  The first movement portrays a dialogue between several groups represented by different sections of the band.  The second movement begins quietly, swells to a climactic level, then concludes with the peacefulness of the beginning.  The final movement is a joyous celebration of the human voice's ability to sing.  Very pleasing to play and equally interesting to listen to - an uplifting selection for any concert program.
Press Reviews

"Eine sehr schöne, nicht allzum schwere Klavierbegleitung, der sich eine Solo-Klarinette anschließt, wird wom Wispern der Orchestermitglieder umrahmt. ... Alles in allem drei gut gelungene, thematisch interessante Kompositionen."

Customer Reviews

"My band very much enjoyed playing "Different Voices", with its unique harmonies, rhythms, and contemporary flavor!"
