The Four Temperaments is a theory created by Ancient Greek physician Aelius Galenus to describe the effect of the four fundamental bodily homours on human personality. The temperaments are Melancholic, Phlegmatic, Choleric, and Sanguine. The theory is that every person has varying levels of each temperament within them, but overall identifies with a single one. Each temperament is related to a classical element and a personality type:

Melancholic - Earth - Analytical and Quiet
Phlegmatic - Water - Relaxed and Peaceful
Choleric - Fire - Short tempered and Irritable
Sanguine - Air - Optimistic and Social

In this suite we travel through all four of the temperaments, seeing how the same melody is interpreted by each personality type.

Duration: About 5 minutes

Part of the series: A Pulchritudinous Posy of Pleasing Party-Pieces

A few fancies for five-part natural trumpet ensemble* with optional timpani.
 
At last: Some new repertoire for the historical natural trumpet!

This one-handed instrument was familiar to composers such as JS Bach, Handel, Telemann, Purcell, Vivaldi etc., but was largely neglected after the invention of valves in the early 19th century - and the subsequent invention of the nodal vent-hole systems in the late 20th-century - until recently, when the elusive lost art of clarino playing (in the fourth octave and above) was cracked by dedicated optimists such as Don L Smithers and JF Madeuf.
 
These arrangements are a stylistic departure from the trumpet's golden age of Baroque repertoire, featuring works well known in the 20th century, and provide excellent training for rhythmic precision, style, pitching and team playing. They're also fun, if you like that sort of thing.

Advice on tuning up the differently-pitched instruments and a technical tip are included.

The current regulations on SMP mean us little guys can only publish in-copyright works one at a time. So, you can collect them all and make yourself a tome!  

These arrangements were originally written for Lunchtime Tower Music (weather permitting), at the Dartington International Summer School between roughly 2000 and 2010, for courses led by Michael Laird and David Staff. Such performances from the mediæval clock tower involved the various brass and other wind classes playing seriously with an informal atmosphere. Logistical issues, a narrow staircase and the ubiquitous Health-and-Safety regulations prevented the use of timpani on the tower but sometimes larger groups, and those involving vertigo sufferers, played in the courtyard instead.

These pieces are the opposite of playing Baroque music on modern, or postmodern instruments.
Get them all now and enjoy a refreshing change!

Enjoy!
