    Incantation and Shadow Dance - Barry E. Kopetz

    Incantation and Shadow Dance is a musical representation of the appearance of the witches in the Shakespeare play "Macbeth." The piece opens with two exceptionally long and emotionally charged measures, the mood slowly building, much like "chanting over a cauldron," dark, mystical and enchanting, invoking the spirits of the night. Then everything changes very abruptly, as a rhythmic introduction announces the appearance of the spirit dance. It represents a "dance macabre" and as such, brings a sense of impending evil and darkness to the mood until the full complement of spirits are now dancing around the fire. The gathering of "storm clouds" heralds the appearance of all manner of dark and sinister creatures joining the dance which builds to climax as all the spirits gather for the final frenzied finale.

    Flat Out and Wide Open - Barry E. Kopetz

    Here is a natural extension of the composers experience of rebuilding and driving a classic Mustang. This driving piece can be viewed as a series of "gear shifts" as you race across a straight, flat stretch of highway. Opening with the rev of the engine, the piece quickly moves into high gear for the remainder of the work, built on short, punctuated, intense motivic ideas. These short snippets propel the music forward as though accelerating wildly with an impending sense of loss of control. A real burst of powerful V-8 musical fun.

    Of Noble Courage - Barry E. Kopetz

    Of Noble Courage is majestic in flavor, capturing the very essence of noblity and dignity.

If used as a procession, there are opportunities for repeats to use as needed.

As several imaginary scenes are portrayed, a sense of dread and foreboding permeates as the natives of the valley detect the presence of trespassers upon their land.

However, the inhabitants of the Valley of Darkness think otherwise . . .
