Taking Steps

Instrumentation: Woodwind Quintet Instruments: Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Horn and Bassoon
Genre: Contemporary1. Box step
2. One step forward, two steps back
3. Heavy steps
4. Out of bounds
Program notes: I sketched this piece during the summer of 2019. My cousin, Ron Fry, had just died from lung cancer. Although he was several years older than me, I felt the void left by his absence; there were 11 of us cousins on my mother's side, and we shared many family experiences together. Now, there are 10 of us left.
Although I often resort to jazz harmonies anyway, I especially lean on them in this piece as a tribute to Ron. He was a fellow trumpet player, but unlike me, he was quite adept at improvising on the spot. He loved jazz, and I remember him picking up his horn once at a family party and spontaneously joining in with the hired band.
During times of reflection, I suppose we all look back on our respective journeys, and the ways in which we have taken "steps." Our ventures, some planned and some not, have much to do with who and what we turn out to be in the long run. Although none of the movements described below represent distinct memories on my part, they do represent typical life experiences that we all encounter. In a musical sense, "steps" are of course a fundamental part of the scale, and this work employs a wide variety of septatonic and octatonic scales.

Forsaken Caverns
Composer: Denham, Robert
Instrumentation: Duet Instruments: Bass, Bassoon
Genre: ContemporaryThis work was written at the request of Tina Carpenter (bassoon) and Nick Scales (bass), and was premiered by them in January of 2007. The original intent for the piece was to showcase as many different timbral possibilities for these instruments as possible, while still holding to a high level of artistic credibility. Its three movements, separated by cadenzas for each instrument, belie a rough adherence to the principles of sonata form in that the two themes so prominently displayed in the first movement provide the main material for the music of the third. The atmosphere is meant to evoke the naturally mournful sounds of long-forgotten caves.

Coming Home...
Composer: Denham, Robert
Instrumentation: Mixed Ensemble Instruments: Clarinet, Trombone
Genre: Contemporaryfor Bb Clarinet and Trombone It is a special feeling to come back to something or someone that is precious to us, even though we may have neglected them for one reason or another. We often think we have good reasons for losing touch, but upon coming back we feel a twinge of regret that it took us so long to move in the right direction. Perhaps we come back to our family, or religion, or cultural roots; perhaps we come back to ourselves, having lost a sense of what it is that defines us. This piece is dedicated to my niece, Carrie Johnston, and to my family; may we never be too busy, distracted, or proud to come back.
