A quintessential John Ritchie work, the Partita (1967) is perfect for brass ensembles looking to incorporate elements of folk-song into their repertoire. The Partita is comprised of four short movements, with the flourish of the first, the country-dance feel of the second, the nostalgic wistfulness of the third, and the thrusting rhythm of the finale designed to achieve a vernacular elation in tone. The Partita is composed with a clean ear and a fresh eye, its mood as heady as apple cider.
