Dedicated to actor David Suchet and ending with a dramatic chase this uproarious suite of pieces will delight Trumpet players of Grades 4 to 5 standard and above.

This delightful suite first published in 1952 is reprinted by popular demand of the many players who have enjoyed its tuneful baroque style. It begins with a stately Prelude followed by a vigorous Allegro. The slow movement explores the more soulful aspects of the trumpet's character. The finale is a lively jig.

An arrangement by Antony Kearns of three of Gershwin's much-loved Piano Preludes. Also suitable for B flat Cornet or Flugelhorn. Suitable for intermediate to advanced players.

There is a dearth of short romantic Trumpet pieces of intermediate grade that challenge and inspire players who already feel secure both in their technique and powers of interpretation. The reissue of Legend by R. Orlando Morgan (1865 1956) will therefore be greatly welcomed as music enriched by the passionate harmonies of Tchaikovsky and even of Wagner in an idiom that is graceful and sure. Though largely forgotten the composer was one of many whose artful command of classical styles earned them respect in their lifetimes neglect thereafter on account of changing fashions and now with yet another swing of the pendulum of taste the chance forre-evaluation today.
