Trumpet Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.851133 Composed by Alexander Courage, Gene Roddenberry, and Michael Giacchino. Arranged by Sophia Johanna Transistor. Contemporary. Individual part. 5 pages. Sophia Transistor #6302255. Published by Sophia Transistor (A0.851133). Epic famous film music STAR TREK theme To Boldly Go and End Credits arranged for single trumpet solo performance (or any instrument notated in treble clef in Bb). A symphonic suite arranged for Bb-trumpet instrumentation. This piece by Michael Giacchino contains portions of the TV Theme by Alexander Courage and Gene Roddenberry. Therefore it is like an epic medley of many familiar symphonic Star Trek tunes as we all love them.It has been adapted specifically for trumpet brass players. Breething signs and spaces are included. Special spherical effects are notated as well.Total play time is approximately 7 minutes and 43 secondsbut there is an option to end the piece in front of the interlude at time 2 min 42 sec at the same bar where the official HalLeonard piano arrangement of to boldly go ends:https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/to-boldly-go-digital-sheet-music/19455787After that, the music gets a little bit darker and string-dominated. These parts have been changed or excluded to make it a solid brasswind only Star Trek performance.Score is available in Bb in treble clef with 5 pages in DIN-A4 format.Major high notes that are the climax of a tension bow sometimes end on a high: ringing Ab'' There is even a High ringing Db''' for the very ambitious trumpet player (but the higher notes are also notated one octave lower).Thanks!YouTube Playalong: https://youtu.be/tBeLe57eROYGerman Description:Die Enterprise dringt dabei in Galaxien vor, die nie ein Mensch zuvor gesehen hat. To Boldly Go and End Credits arrangiert für Trompete notiert in Bb im Violinschlüssel.Dieses Stück von Michael Giacchino enthält auch Teile des Fernsehintros komponiert von Alexander Courage und Gene Roddenberry. Deswegen ist es eigentlich das perfekte Medley aus vielen bekannten Star Trek Melodien, die uns besonders aus den Anfängen noch bekannt sind (mit Theremin und so) teilweise jazzig aber vor allem symphonisch und orchestral.Dieses Stück wurde speziell auf Trompete angepasst. Die Streicher-lastigen Stellen wurden gekürzt, weggelassen oder umgedichtet, damit man am Ende ein solides Blechblasstück hat. Atmungszeichen und Plätze zum Atmen finden Verwendung. Auch spherische Klang-Effekte finden Beachtung.Spielzeit insgesamt: 7:43Wem das zu lang ist, dem sei gesagt, dass es ein alternatives Ende nach 2:42 gibt, an der gleichen Stelle, wo auch das offizielle Hal Leonard Klavier Arrangement aufhört:https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/to-boldly-go-digital-sheet-music/19455787Die Score-Partitur gibt es als Trompete in Bb im Violinschlüssel notiert auf 5 Seiten in DIN-A4.Viele der melodischen Spannungbögen enden auf ein klingendes Ab''Es gibt sogar Stellen, die auf ein hohes klingendes Db''' enden, für alle ambitionierte Trompetenspieler (nach unten transponieren immer möglich).Epische Filmmusiknoten für Trompete: STAR TREK theme to boldly go symphonic suite.#smppressmusic#startrekmusic#startrektheme#epictromboneDanke fürs anschauen!TAGS:STAR TREK theme, star trek trumpet, Noten, sheet music, score, arrangement, trumpet arrangement, to boldly go, filmmusic for trumpet, epic film music, Trompete, Star Trek Trompete, Star Trek Music, star trek arrangement, Star Trek solo performance, #startrekmusic, #startrektheme, #smppressmusic, Sophia Johanna Transistor, Star Trek Michael Giacchino, Michael Giacchino Arrangement, To Boldly Go and End Credits, bol.

B-Flat Trumpet,Piano - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.549586 Composed by Edvard Grieg. Arranged by James M. Guthrie, ASCAP. Concert,Instructional,Romantic Period,Standards,World. Score and part. 18 pages. Jmsgu3 #3511285. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.549586). Duration: ca. 2:17 Score: 10 pages, solo part: 2 pages, piano part: 5 pages. A proven audience pleaser - perfect for a recital encore! Grieg Background In the first place, Edvard Grieg (1843 –1907) was a Norwegian composer as well as a concert pianist. As a matter of fact, most music historians consider him one of the foremost Romantic era composers. Consequently, his music is part of the international standard classical repertoire. Grieg moreover used Norwegian folk music in his own compositions. Consequently, he ushered Norwegian music to transnational consciousness. Furthermore, he forged a national musical identity for Norway. It is important to realize that he did this in a manner similar to Jean Sibelius in Finland, and Bedřich Smetana in Bohemia. Legacy Grieg is especially celebrated in the city of Bergen. For example, the city has erected numerous statues depicting Grieg. Specifically, the city has named a concert hall (Grieg Hall), a music school (Grieg Academy) and a professional choir (Edvard Grieg Kor) after him. As a matter of fact, there is also a museum located at his former home in Troldhaugen. Peer Gynt Suite No. 1 (Op. 46) Grieg wrote incidental music for the purpose of illustrating a play by Ibsen known as Peer Gynt. The play includes, in particular, the famous selection entitled, In the Hall of the Mountain King. In this composition, Grieg indeed depicts the exploits of the scoundrel, Peer Gynt. In one famous episode, for example, Peer steals a bride at her wedding. For this reason, the people chase him, but soon Peer falls, thereupon striking his skull on a boulder. He wakens forthwith in a highland bounded by angry gnomes. Consequently, the music of In the Hall of the Mountain King represents the mad gnomes taunting Peer. Therefore, each time the theme repeats it gets louder and faster. In the end, Peer surprisingly escapes from the mountain. Holberg Suite and Misc. Summary It must be remembered that Grieg originally wrote his Holberg Suite for the piano. In other words, he only later arranged it for strings. Further, Grieg composed by and large many songs with lyrics by famous writers such as Heine, Goethe, Ibsen, Hans Christian Andersen, Rudyard Kipling, and others. On balance, Norwegian pianist Eva Knardahl recorded altogether Grieg’s whole piano catalog on LP in 1980. These recordings were released again on CD in 2006. In any event, Grieg himself performed and recorded the bulk of these pieces toward the end of his life.
