Description |
Concertutti Brevis is a virtuoso piece for trumpet that deliberately uses every kind of technical and artistic difficulty. There are tricky fingerings, awkward leaps, fast runs, intricate rhythms, and a host of challenges for the trumpet player. There is literally nowhere to hide any technical deficiencies in this piece.
“Concertutti” is a portmanteau, a made-up word combining “concerto” (a composition for one or more soloists with a large ensemble) and “tutti” (everyone). The trumpet is featured, but a group effort is needed and every instrument has an important parts.
Performance time: 4’05”
There are two other versions available. Each alternate version is also available as a solo for one trumpet and the respective ensembles: Concertutti – for three solo trumpets and wind ensemble Concertutti Meno – for three solo trumpets and piano |
