or
Suite for Violin, Oboe, Cello and Piano

3 movements
I.   Seven Toes Down
II.  En Pointe
III. Muddy Boots

Duration:  6 minutes

This charming suite has three short movements, each with its own character.  The suite bursts open with breathless energy.  “Seven Toes Down” is modal, in 7/8 time, with people dancing in bare feet on bare ground, so vigorously that it kicks up the dust.  “En Pointe” opens with a lovely waltz, then it focuses in on the tiny, delicate movements of a ballerina high up on her toes.  “Muddy Boots” is big strong guys, covered with dirt from a hard day of work, practicing one-upmanship.  Different players have the chance to show what they can do, surrounded by their friends. Then we catch another glimpse of the ballerina before closing playfully with Seven Toes Down.
