Quote from: Rons_talking on June 24, 2024, 02:27:17 PMI recently completed this work for small orchestra featuring the trumpet. It's concerto-like and dramatic in nature.

Nice job!  I quite enjoyed it.  :)

A while back, I composed a suite to be played be me, the composer.  Unfortunately, my problematic spinal stenosis makes sitting in upright classical position an adventure in spasmodic waves, so I put away my classical.
Here's one of the works that I like.

Here's a short, scherzo-like movement from my piano/wind quartet.

I don't see many recent compositions here so I'll add the opening to my 8th String Quartet. It's episodic and motivic...

OK. Here's a movement from an octet I composed recently. I really like the texture you get with percussion and piano mixed with string quartet, clarinet and flute.

Here's a brand new work for clarinet, percussion, and piano. At measure 15, we break into a dance with some polyrhythms.

Here is the theme and the first 9 variations from this work. The theme has an east-European flavor to it (replete with augmented 2nd) and the variations embrace that. I'm working on the next few variations, trying to get some variety while adhering to the form.
