Twilight Dance is a brilliant piece set in 5/4 time that is inspired by Turkish, Arab, and Eastern European folk music and gives old traditional rhythms and melodies a contemporary revamp. This piece features flowing woodwind lines, bold brass sections, and creative rhythm section moments. 
 
Some performance suggestions for Twilight Dance include using castanets in the introduction section and the section leading into the solo section as well as finger cymbals. The trumpet 2 part can be challenging, so it is recommended to split the part and have two players perform it, trading off at each phrase. The trumpet 2 part can also be interpreted as a solo feature.
