A haunting melody composed by a true musical innovator, this straight-eighth chart in 3/4 is an accessible trumpet or flugelhorn solo feature with an outstanding jazz ensemble background. In a beautifully quiet ballad style, your developing soloist will shine as the melodic material unwinds and is supported by the ensemble. A transcription of the recorded improvised solo section is provided. The top trumpet note is G. Highly recommended!

Flute, clarinet, 2 bassoons (2. also contrabassoon), 2 trumpets (C) and 2 trombones (Fl. * Klar. in B * 2 Fag. * 2 Tromp. in C * 2 Pos.) - difficult

At various stages of his creative life, Pablo Picasso repeatedly turned to the figure of the 'sad jester' Harlequin and identified with him. Volker David Kirchner's 'Groteske fur acht Blaser', created in 1981 on the occasion of a Picasso exhibition, also performs the constant tightrope act between earthy humour and melancholy of the harlequin figure, evoking the spheres of Stravinsky's Petrushka and Debussy's Faun as well.
