A work of moderate length written in a neo-classical-to-modern style
... a satisfying musical work.- The Double Reed

Boxcars was originally written for a 1981 performance at Bennington College, Vermont, where Maurice Pachman and I gave the premiere performance and where I was named the 1981 Theodore H. Presser Scholar. For intermediate to advanced players, the work is in four short movements: Doodles is a fun movement where the bassoonists weave lines around each other; Sailor's Lament is a personal movement written in memory of my late father; Paces is a moment of decision making with some confusion; Home-Free-All is a quick memory of a summer game of Hide and Seek. The title Boxcars refers to the C-119 Flying Boxcars that I gazed up at as they approached a local airfield on Long Island, New York, during the 1950's. I hand-engraved the score and parts in 1988 using Keuffel and Esser pen and ink templates.-EJH
