Publisher's Synopsis
for two basses or small ensemble Inspired by Minsky's hike through the terrain of the Pacific Northwest, performers will feel as though they made the trip with him. The three movements cover the styles of Bluegrass, American Waltz, and Blues Rock. The books that make up Pacific Northwest Suite can be used separately, in various mix-and-match combinations, or all together, making a full string orchestra. Students are encouraged to use these pieces as a basis for improvisation.
