Barat, Joseph E - Andante et Scherzo
Catalogue No: AL21324
£11.99
Typically dispatched in 2-3 working days
Joseph Edouard Barat (1882-1963) is best known for his concertos and compositions for solo wind and orchestra. His sympathy for wind music is thought to have been influenced by his work as a bandmaster with the French Army, fromwhich his compositional expertise has derived. His Andante et Scherzo for Trumpet and Piano begins in a slow, common time, avoiding clear tonality until it cadences in C major. The second movement is also in C major yet providescontrast by its compound meter and quick pace. Barat's talent is proven when he cleverly combines the two movements during the coda. These musical elements, along with many other features, create a highly enjoyable performance andis a necessity for any trumpeter's repertoire.
