Solos, Duets, & Trios
From the sweet sound of solo violin, to the complex interplay of a trio for piano and strings, works in this category max out at three instruments, giving them a very clear, concise, and deeply personal sound.Examples: Why Can't It Be || Eventide
Chamber Works
This is by far the most widely ranging ensemble in terms of size, range, and examples. Jazz bands, rock groups, string quartets, and folk circles all fall into this category. The level of flexibility found in works of middling size is extraordinary.Example: Core Conflict || Kaleidocopia
Orchestra
Both sheer power and range can be found in the orchestra. These works are massive undertakings that express the most complicated of musical thoughts. The layers and richness provided by this form are unparalleled in any other form.Example: No Further Than Home
