Every once in a while you encounter a piece of music that really brings the reality hammer home, letting you know you're not all that with a trumpet in your hand. This is such a piece for me, but ... that's not the main point of this post.
I'm wondering about a specific note, in the Scherzo movement. There is a bar, 9 from the end of the movement, that has two sixteenths (Bb, Ebb), followed by a dotted quarter (Cb).
In at least some recordings I've listened to, it seems that the soloist plays a Bb for that last note instead of a Cb, or B natural. I kind of like the sound of it that way, but it's not what's written, at least not in my copy.
I'm wondering if there might be a later edition that shows a change there, or errata somewhere? _________________ "Music is like candy, you throw the (w)rappers away." |

For what it's worth,
In the original etude (the three pieces in the Triptyque are three etudes from Tomasi's Six Etudes Pour Trompette...just with piano accompaniment) it is indeed a Cb. I've always played a Cb.
I'm curious...what recordings do you have where they play something else? All of mine play the Cb...
Best,

On a second more careful listen, I think it was the Cb, just it was a little low in pitch and when combined with the piano part underneath it fooled me. I jumped the gun. Thanks for your reply. _________________ "Music is like candy, you throw the (w)rappers away." |

How big do your hands need to be to play the piano part for this? Movement two measure 5 and measure 13 aren't possible right? _________________ https://www.youtube.com/adamczerepinski |
