Humoresque and Fugue in E flat major - (2012) ![](images/01_Little_Green_Dot.gif)
for piano
The lovely limping lilt of 7/8 is regularly divided into 3 with two 2's following. After a harmonic introduction, the opening theme divides the meter's seven into three-two-and-two. It is passed between the hands at times, and sometimes sung out in tenths. Regular phrase lengths break the seeming irregularity of this meter and rhythm.

The fugue divides metrically as does the humoresque, with a whimsical "plunk" on the last eighth note in the bass. The fugue's phrase length is generally five measures long.
