Selected Duets for Trumpet PodcastDavid Summer plays Selected Duets for Trumpet. Author: David Summer
David Summer plays Selected Duets for Trumpet. Using his home recording studio, David has recorded some of the duets from the book Selected Duets for Trumpet, Volume 1 Edited by H.Voxman. These trumpet duets are standard learning material for trumpet students taking trumpet lessons and can be fun to play for all trumpet players. In addition to being educational, the duets may also be used by two trumpets in performance. They are especially effective for brass players who are playing wedding ceremonies, church services and other occasions calling for majestic or elegant brass music. This podcast contains the recordings of both trumpet parts, played as a duet. As a resource for trumpet students and trumpet teachers, David has also recorded each of these duets in a trumpet 2 only version that can be used as a play along. The matching trumpet 2 only version for each of these recordings can be found on the Trumpet Podcast page of David's website at www.summersong.net.

Page45 #11, Allemande

Selected Duets for Trumpet, Page 45 Number 11, Allemande, performed by David Summer. This third duet in the series by Joseph Boismortier is an Allemande. An allemande is a moderate tempo dance form that was popular during the baroque. An allemande is generally the first or second part of a suite, with a "suite" being a collection of dances. Again there are several "question and answer" sections, as we’ve seen in previous duets. But this time the "answers" start before the end of the "questions". This may prove to be a rhythmic challenge for a student along with the 16th note runs in the second half of the duet. The metronome setting for this performance is quarter note = 84.
