Editor’s Note by William Vacchiano

These beautiful piano concertos, which have been transcribed for two trumpets, offer the players highly challenging yet enjoyable practice material. Bear in mind, however, that due to the trumpeters’ 2 1/2 octave range and limited endurance one should fashion his or her practice after the following:

1) never play more than 64 bars at one time;
2) switch off between 1st and 2nd parts as necessary;
3) change the register (if too low or too high) to suit individual capabilities;
4) don’t under play for the sake of endurance- play with a full, singing sound,
but rest often;
5) vary the speed according to technical abilities of the trumpeters;
6) work towards your “ceiling” without overblowing and risking embouchure
damage.
7) Have fun!

Difficult but enjoyable, challenging but satisfying. Are you up to the challenge?
