If you are looking for a simple, still impressive fugue for your younger players, this will fill your need. The first trumpet part has most of the work but due to the length of the piece, most players will not burn out playing it. The range is easy and there are enough rests to help out. It begins with a slow choral and quickly starts the fugue in the second part. The ending is very impressive for the fugue ends in a strong homo-phonic section followed by the final slow choral. This would sound great on any recital or as a contest piece for it has everything in it for a first place finish.
All parts are doubled in the piano accompaniment which will give your players a little more confidence and because of the doubled parts, the trumpets can perform this without the piano. Parts include- Trumpet parts, piano part and score.
