“Bohuslav Martinu (1890-1959) was a prolific Czech composer, writing many large scale works. The composer moved to Paris in 1923 where he began experimenting in a variety of composition styles. Sonatine for Trumpet and Piano was composed in 1957 and is adaptable to both the B flat and C Trumpet. Martinu himself was a violinist but he liked to experiment and the mid-1950s saw him move to Nice in France, where he began writing Sonatas for wind and brass. Sonatine for Trumpet exemplifies the composer's influence of Stravinsky, Debussy and jazz music. The piece is excitingly virtuosic in its use of flutter tonguing, complex rhythms, chromaticism, and ensemble between the Trumpet and Piano. As a varied, substantial work for the Trumpet repertoire, Martinu's Sonatine is essential to the advanced trumpeter.&rdquo.

“Parisian born composer, Roger Boutry (b. 1932) proves with his Trumpeldor for Trumpet and Piano, his ability as a virtuoso musician. Boutry won many prizes during his time at the Paris Conservatoire, as well as for his professional work. He has over 100 published works in which he successfully unites diverse modern and traditional trends. He was named Personality of the Year in 1989 for all of his artistic activities. Trumpeldor is highly rhythmic and syncopated, exploiting tonality and Trumpet technique to their full potential. The entire work is riveting for performers and audiences alike. Boutry's Trumpeldor for Trumpet and Piano accompaniment is an essential, varied addition to the advanced saxophonist's repertoire.&rdquo.

Piece of contest (1946) by Andre Chailleux was written for the Paris Conservatoir contest. Lasting 5'25 minutes, this piece for Cornet or Bb Trumpet and Piano is difficult to play and quite slow. Starting with the Piano on four measures, this work has two distinctive periods: Slow and Allegro. The Piano plays alone during eight or ten measures to emphasise the coming back of the Cornet / Trumpet. This piece will demonstrate well the skills and technique of the player during a contest, or even a recital..

“French composer, pianist and teacher, Paul Rougnon (1846-1934) studied at the Paris Conservatoire under many prolific musicians of the time, including César Franck. Rougnon's composition catalogue is extensive, with many works remaining popular to this day, including his First Concert Solo for Trumpet or Cornet and Piano. The date of composition is unknown, however Rougnon's First Concert Solo displays characteristics of early, French romantic music, such as chromaticism, flourishing semiquaver passages, complex rhythms and extensive use of performance directions. For all advanced, aspiring Trumpet and Cornet players, Rougnon provides an alternative, exciting performance work.&rdquo.
