Whimsical Bliss

for Wind Quintet

"Whimsical Bliss" for Wind Quintet tonally explores rhythmic variety. Various hemiolas in an odd time signature are showcased with the ease of progression and line. This piece illustrates the comfort and bliss of living with whimsy. The grace notes in the melody always fall into the beat just as the notion of everyday life falls into our laps. The piece ends in a peaceful resting place just as the day ends with a head on the pillow, ready to begin again.
