Social Distinctions A modern, jazzy piece that is an engaging and witty conversation involving the instruments in the quintet. The Composer writes... "Social Distinctions" juxtaposes the sensibilities of two classes from an earlier time. The rowdy and devil-may-care, lower-class lovers of unrestrained good times, accompanied by rude and crude music- as opposed to the gentile aristocracy, who celebrate the cultivation of good etiquette, sound investments while enjoying the pleasures of refined art and music".
