Female composer Alexandra Pakhmutova who is one of the best known figures in Soviet and later Russian popular music since she first achieved fame in her homeland in the 1960s has composed this piece for Trumpet and Orchestra.Rarely performed Concerto For Trumpet and Orchestra is not technically difficult and therefore gives a lot of room for expression. It is an exciting piece for the audience to listen to.

Written in 1803 by Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837) this Trumpet Concerto is a classical piece of the Trumpet repertoire. This version of the concerto features the score and part for Trumpet and band. Composed in the spirit of Mozart the band is composed of:  - Flute I & II (2) - Oboes I & II (2) - Clarinet I (2) - Clarinet II (2) - Clarinet III (2) - Horns I & II (2) - Trumpets I & II (2) - Timpani - Solo Trumpet - Bass Clarinet (2) - Bassoons I & II (2) - Countrabassoon Former student of Mozart Johann NepomukHummel (1778-1837) was a brilliant composer pianist conductor and teacher. Evolving at the same period as Beethoven he became as famous and wrote numerous concertos (for Piano Oboe Trumpet Violin and others) operas and some wind music pieces.

Par JOLIVET ANDRE. Andre Jolivet (1905-1974) established his love for composition from a young age. This remained throughout his life, and he held the post of Professor of Composition from 1966-1970 at Paris Conservatoire. Concerto No. 2 for Trumpet was composed in 1955, and remains highly regarded. Jolivet, himself a cellist, wished to explore composition for all instruments and therefore has a considerable number of works in all fields. The composer's style is also known for its spirituality, and the desire to associate the everyday with the magical, and the human with the universal. Jolivet draws on acoustics andatonality, as heard in Concerto No. 2 for Trumpet. The piece requires high, virtuosic skills due to its expansive use of extended techniques. For all advanced trumpeters, Jolivet provides an exciting, different piece for the instrument's repertoire./ Répertoire / Trompette et Orchestre
