Phillip Brookes: Little Suite, op. 54 (final upload, with improved sound)

Here’s my Little Suite, based mainly on music I wrote for a pantomime in 1982. The pantomime never happened, but several pieces were played at the Royal College of Music, and have appeared in other pieces over the years. I made some them into a suite in 1995, adding a new movement - Thoughts - based on an unused sketch.
This is a computerised version, although four of the movements have been played in concert. Old cassette recorders just didn't do so well!
The movements are:
1. Pastoral (0.00)
2. March (2:18)
3. Thoughts (4:12)
4. Elephants (10:48)
5. Celebration! (12:45)

Wow, I did not expect to hear an alto sax in solo contrary motion with a bone (in Elephants). Nice touch, Phillip! Some nice melodic extensions in Celebration, and a creative ending (hint at multi tempo counterpoint, some nice chromatic sequencing, some nice stacked harmonies, etc.). This particular movement sounds much more like "you," and much less of a throwback or homage to the limitations of any other particular composer or style. From my point of view, your "Celebration" if you developed it significantly, would make a really fine composition in it's own right. (You only touched the surface--there is a lot of thematic material that could be wistfully developed into a frenzy of an truly exciting work). I hope you consider that. Bravo!
