Scherzino

Short, quick, tricky, lightish and fun to play, rehearse and perform. It is similar in writing style to the Suite (see TRP-045). A very effective piece with lots of rhythmic and melodic interaction.

ITG Journal, February 1999, page 54:

"Joining a long list of excellent trumpet ensemble publications from Triplo Press..." "...an "edgy" little piece with its own sense of style and atmosphere." "...sensibly written...well-crafted work for a good high school or college level ensemble..." "Refreshingly, rhythmic interest...(,) accomplished through well-written rhythmic figures, accents, articulations, and various simple meters...(along with) wide intervals(,) produce a humorous "limp" technique..." "...typesetting... is clear and concise." "... a worthwhile addition to the trumpet ensemble repertoire."
