This is the one that everyone will recognize, even your long, lost uncle. I was surprised at how well this number transferred to a trumpet quartet. The accompaniment transcribed well as backing for the beautiful solo part. Nothing has been lost, in my opinion. It was written in a lower key but this also works well. If you want something “old” as well as something “new”, this is it. You can imagine what the judge will say when your students perform this one at contest.
