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.”
