| Comments | Ded. to Fredrick Thurston. Written in conservative style with little dissonance. Second Movement requires the most technique with thirty-second arpeggios. Good concerto for a medium level student. | ||

| Fantasie, Op. 87 |
|||
| Written | |||
| Duration | |||
| Comments | Commissioned by the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. A short, sectional solo piece. Technical aspect requires quick arpeggios and sudden changes of dynamics. Good first unaccompanied work for a beginning level college student. | ||

| Comments | First and last movements have much energy and drive, with the Andantino being quiet. Similar in style and difficulty to the Concerto. | ||

| Three Shanties |
|||
| Written | |||
| Duration | |||
| Comments | You probably knew that the first movement was based on "What can you do with a drunken sailor," but did you know that the 2nd movement is based on "Boney was a warrior" ("Boney" being Bonaparte, as in Napoleon), and the 3rd is based on "What will the Navy do when good old Lulu's gone?" I've never heard of a quintet who didn't play this piece (too many times). | ||
