This work was written as an homage to two of the most influential composers of my student days--Paul Hindemith and Maurice Ravel. The title--"Contrasts"--was chosen, because I featured elements of each composer in the same work. Movement I comprises elements of Hindemith... movement IV features elements of Ravel. The inner movements, II and III, contain stylistic material of both composers and are meant to act as transitional components for the entire work.

This piece emulates the character of two of my most influential composers. Movements I and II reflect Paul Hindemith; movements III and IV reflect the concepts of Ravel. The two middle movements, however, contain elements of both composers and act as transitional material.

Movement II is compound binary in form, and is very "Hindemithian" in style.

This 3rd movement is--as was the 2nd movement--transitional with regard to the outer movements in that it has elements of both Hindemith and Ravel in its content.

This Toccata is very much in the style of Ravel.
