Trumpet Voluntary & Trumpet Tune for Trumpet and Piano

Although most of Henry Purcell’s compositional works were written for harpsichord and organ, these two ceremonial themes are arranged for trumpet and piano by Tony Santorella and Jonathon Robbins. Written in comfortable register with a first valve trill as opposed to the second and third valve, this bestselling solo is arranged by one who has performed the original on countless occasions and felt the need to make the performance more comfortable and subsequently playable. These two pieces have become the processional and recessional of choice by many brides, grooms, and wedding planners but at least now, to pull off a brilliant performance, won’t be nearly as daunting. This edition of Trumpet Voluntary and Trumpet Tune for Trumpet and Piano is a trumpet requirement for many state auditions including the board of music educators associated with the NYSSMA organization.
