Partita' consists of three short movements - a showy 'Con Brio', a more reflective 'Andante' and a sparkling 'Giocoso' with a strong rhythmic interest. With attractive melodic lines passed between the parts and varied syncopated rhythms it makes a good show piece for instruments that are usually only given bass lines to play. All parts are of equal difficulty, so making it an ideal piece for study and performance at a brass workshop. For more advanced players it provides good ensemble practice with varied dynamics and tempos, and is useful as a light-hearted encore.
