trumpet, horn (opt second trumpet), trombone

Portland, ME, United States
Publisher: PP Music
Date of Publication: 2009

Score and parts

Primary Genre: Brass Ensemble - 3 brass

Here are four relatively short movements that are playable and accessible. Movements are titled: Introduction and Valse, Rondo Amadeus, Romance, and Polka. This is excellent program material for a wide variety of audiences. There are no range problems and the degree of difficulty is moderate. While playable by amateurs, advanced trios will enjoy making music with this well constructed composition.
