BUGLER'S HOLIDAY
BUGLER'S HOLIDAY is "a strong addition to the trumpet ensemble repertoire." "David Hickman's writing...is creative and effective." "...easy to read, and well-marked... Editing is carefully done, avoiding potential balance problems." "This unique arrangement deserves to be added to personal or institutional libraries."
ITG Journal, May 1993, page 30
HORNPIPE from Watermusic (1741)
"(The Hornpipe is one of) nine extremely attractive and useful arrangements for trumpet ensembles of from five to nine parts.... simple, straighforward, and require a minimum of rehearsal time. They do not make extreme demands in terms of range or endurance...music is clearly printed, with no awkward page turns. (Olcott) demonstrates his usual expert arranging skill in providing as much variety and melodic interest as possible in the inner parts whilerotating the melody among the players."

Galib, Michael
Key: C Major concert
Number of trumpets: 7
Duration: 8:20
Difficulty: 8
Catalogue no.: TRP-073
The first prize winner of the 2004 ITG Composition Contest (solo trumpet w/trumpet ensemble accompaniment) and premiered at the 2004 ITG Conference in Denver, this work is written for trumpet solo and trumpet ensemble accompaniment. Very intense, even jarring 20th-century harmonies and incessant rhythms that are somehow wonderfully accessible to an audience; the piece holds everyone's almost breathless attention. Lots of fresh ideas for interplay between parts and groups, and challenging and really fun to play. Written for C trumpets, it can also be played on B-flat instruments

Key: (none)
Number of trumpets: 7
Duration: 3:00
Difficulty: 5
Catalogue no.: TRP-061
A really fun piece to rehearse and perform. An uptempo work on the light side and a great closer. Lots of scale passages and repeated melodies that transfer from part to part. Beautifully and idiomatically arranged. One of the "happiest" pieces going. Highly recommended. (No need to play the ending quite as fast as I've done on the recording)
