This new composition for solo trumpet by renowned composerPhilip Sparke explores many aspects of trumpet playing and inparticular its lyrical and technical possibilities. It is a twomovement piece but either movement can be played separatelyif a shorter solo is required. The ‘theme’ of the piece is aweekend in New York with the opening bluesy movement,Saturday Serenade, describing the city on a Saturday night,perhaps in a smoke-filled jazz bar. While composing the secondmovement, Sunday Scherzo, the composer pictured an earlymorning jog in Central Park. A must for all trumpet players. Thiswork is also available for trumpet and concert band.
