Joseph Kreines: Short Suite 4

  
Short Suite No. 4 is a work in three contrasting, movements, each of which shares a common melodic motive.  The first opens with an antiphonal statement of the main motive followed by a march, which expands and develops it.  The second presents a lyrical version of the material featuring contrasts of scoring and dynamics. The work concludes with a rhytmic statement of the intial material.
