Published by Kenneth Baird Music (A0.1309112). Festival Solo in Classical Style – for Bb trumpet or cornet or flugelhorn solo with piano accompaniment – by Kenneth BairdThe beloved classical trumpet concertos of Haydn and Hummel, and the horn concertos of Mozart, are performed more often than any other concertos for brass instruments. Young trumpet students hear these works and aspire to perform them or something in a similar style. For those students not yet ready to tackle these major works the options are limited. Festive Piece in Classical Style call fill that need. While composed in 2023, every effort has been made to compose this in a true classical style. Memorable lyrical melodies, legato, staccato, and marcato passages, dynamic variety, and traditional harmonies, while requiring only limited range demands, make this an outstanding choice for someone seeking to perform an intermediate-level classical-style solo. The top written trumpet note is an A (concert G) that occurs only once and an optional lower note is provided. Included is an optional cadenza (with a top note of written Bb) that more advanced players may include in their performance. While composed originally for trumpet, the composer feels this works equally well on flugelhorn or cornet. The piano accompaniment is accessible to advanced intermediate pianists.
