This trumpet concert is, as its title clearly indicates, a mixture of different styles. The martial first movement reminding us slightly of Haydn's trumpet concerto is followed by a lyrical movement illustrating the brilliance of the instrument. The final movement is a rhythmical allegro that allows the soloist to demonstrate his technical skills. Here is a fine piece to put the spotlight on your best trumpeter.

£88.00Campinos Scalabitanos - Samuel Pascoal
Horses and bulls have transformed the landscape and culture of Ribatejo (Portugal) and created the natural character of the Campino, guardian of the flatlands and the animals that roam. It is, no doubt, one of the most typical characteristics of Santarem, Ribatejo. Campinos Scalabitanos is a pasodoble which pays a tribute to this tradition. It starts with impressive and colourful chords suggesting the bulls and then comes a gentle melody with a totally different character. A Campino on horseback watches the cattle and suddenly a bull runs away, but the Campino drives it back to the herd. The paso doble concludes with a Portuguese march with taurine music characteristics turning Campinos Scalabitanos into typical Portuguese bullfighting music.

£135.50Dis-TENSIONS-diS - Carlos Pellicer
The title 'Dis-TENSIONS-diS' is a game (or pun) with the words tension and distension (relaxation). The work stems from a 'Leitmotiv' presented at the beginning of the work by the warm sound of the bassoon. So from this melody draws all small parts for maximum re-use like elements of cohesion in different parts of the work. Hence the inevitable game of 'tension and relaxation' that occurs from such re-use of the same subject, but with a multitude of possible variations. Dis-TENSIONS-diS received a Mencion de Honor at the Italian Concorso Internazionale di Composizione originale per banda 2009.

£110.40Pomp and Circumstance no. 2 - Edward Elgar
Sir Edward Elgar wrote his Pomp and Circumstance March no. 2 in 1901 and dedicated it to the composer Granville Bantock. Although this second march is less known than the first, it is not less beautiful. A loud call for attention by the brass section is followed by a nice staccato theme with the woodwinds, completed by different instruments in a construction leading to the trio. This trio in major key contains a simple melody written in thirds played respectively by the woodwinds and the brass. The work ends with a short but powerful coda.

£119.80Clouds - Eric Swiggers
This piece was commissioned by Kunstfactor in the Netherlands. This work has been written in a contemporary but accessible idiom. The composition describes three different clouds: 1. Cumulus. Cumulus clouds are a type of cloud with noticeable vertical development and clearly defined edges. They are often described as 'puffy' or 'cotton-like' in appearance. Cumulus clouds mostly forecasts nice, sunny weather. 2. Cirrocumulus. Cirrocumulus clouds are high-altitude clouds that usually occur at an altitude of 6 km to 10 km. Although the term cirrocumulus refers to each cloud, it is typically also used to refer to an entire patch of cirrocumulus. This kind of clouds mostly forecast rainy, stormy weather. 3. Cumulonimbus. Cumulonimbus is a type of cloud that is tall, dense, and involved in thunderstorms and other intense weather. It will be no surprise that thunder and lightning are clearly audible in this third part of 'Clouds'.
