J.M. Damase: Adage (you should have no trouble ordering this one) This is a really nice piece, not too difficult.
F. Hidas: Only Two, also a very nice piece. Not published. I can send you a copy or a Finale file if you like.
S. Friedman: Sonatine, trumpet part is quite difficult, harp part not so. It is a more modern style, comparable to Friedmans Solus. It is published and easily available.
R. Peaslee: Nightsongs, great piece for trumpet & flugelhorn (one player), harp and strings. It is recorded several times with piano accompagniment (Roger Webster, Jim Thompson, Yutaka Tobe) and once with harp/strings accompagniment (Philip Smith). All the recordings show that everyone likes this piece. It is readily available. Try
http://www.sheetmusicservice.com for the harp/strings version.
L. Dubrovay: Valse triste et tres vite, really great piece but it requires a very virtuoso trumpet player. You should really hear the recording of this one.
M. Rauchverger: Meditation, nice piece, a bit taxing on endurance for the trumpet. This one is published and readily available.
M.J. Van Appledorn: Rhapsody, nice piece but a lot of high D's for C trumpet, which can be a problem :wink: It is published (Arsis Press) but can be a problem to order.
O. Bohme: Souvenir de St. Petersbourgh, I haven't played it yet, but it looks very playable and easy-listening. Published and easy to order.
All of the Hungarian trumpet/harp pieces are very good, and generally very playable. None of them are published except M. Maros: Lyria. You can order this one for copy costs only from
www.mic.stim.se
Some of the other pieces I have not listed above can be quite modern/experimental and very very difficult.
I hope this helps a bit,
PS.: Do you have Java-script enabled? I am a bit confused that you can't operate the buttons...
