Covid Blues is an unaccompanied duet written in swing style for French horn and trombone. The piece begins with a slow conversation between two instruments. It starts with them taking turns, but the intensity ramps up with the instruments talking over each other leading into the main body of the piece.
The first section in written in the 12-bar blues tradition with the instruments trading off the lead and accompaniment. Then the instruments trade solos with a brief interlude between each solo. After the solos, there is a rubato section where the instrument trade mournful calls and responses eventually leading back into beginning blues section, this time with added energy. The piece concludes with a brief coda.
