Trumpet and Chamber Orchestra Advice

x3matt · 06-01-2006, 08:04 AM

I have been asked to perform a solo with a chamber orchestra in a few months. Are there any new pieces or pieces that need to be heard more that I should look into? I am up for anything. I have done Haydn, Hummel and Neruda before so i am looking for something diferent if possible. Any thought would be appreciated. Thanks, Matt Frederick

i did the fasch in march that would work really well, so does handel suite the torelli (sp?) purcell suite but i tend to like performing baroque things.

If you're up for it, I would recommend the Concerto for Trumpet and Chamber Orchestra by Gunther Schuller. It's incredibly difficult but definitely a piece that deserves more recognition.

I had not thought about the Schuller, that is one that I had not thought of. I would like it to be something different and that would certainly fit the bill! Thanks for the sugestions. How large is the chamber orchestra on the Schuller? Thanks, Matt

Matt,
The orcestration for the Schuller is 2 piccolos, 2 clarinets, 2 bass clarinets, percussion, harp/piano, and strings.

Another phenomenal is piece is the Concerto Piccolo on B-A-C-H by Arvo Part. It might be a bit shorter than what you're looking for.

Has anyone else pplayed this? It sounds interesting

I don't know that one at all, can you describe it a little? Thanks, Matt

It's based on Pärt's "Collage uber B-A-C-H" and it's for Trumpet, Strings, Piano, and Harpsichord. I have yet to find an edition for trumpet and piano but I got the score and I'm working on one myself. If you go to Hakan Hardenberger's site you can listen to it on the "Radio Hakan."

I'm going to move this into Ed Carroll's forum. He's great with suggestions about this sort of thing.
