- or postlude. The catch: I have NO accompaniment.
Normally I play in a church where I lead a 12-piece chamber orchestra, but I have to do this service alone on flugelhorn or trumpet.
I have two pieces that will work and I'm hoping you can give me ideas for others: Rondeau by Jean-Joseph Mouret, and Alla Hornpipe by Handel. Both can be played alone and done in 60 to 90 seconds if shortened.
I'm a jazz player, so my classical technique is only moderate. What else can you recommend please?
Thanks! _________________ Matt Finley https://mattfinley.bandcamp.com/releases

I think you’ll like it. I’m mainly a jazz player myself but I play from it a lot because the selections are so beautiful. _________________ Jim Hatfield

Yes, I can see even from the few abbreviated examples it will be very useful.
I ordered this late last night, and Hickey's Music in Ithaca has already shipped it! What great service. _________________ Matt Finley https://mattfinley.bandcamp.com/releases

Certain things from the Art of Phrasing section of the Arban book might work for you. Some nice things hiding in there. |

...has many pieces that will fit the bill and can be played on solo trumpet. Several also have a bass accompaniment if you can find a partner on bass instrument or pianist who can comp the line.
The form of the Bach pieces is often A-A-B-A-B(fine), so you can choose to play just enough to fill the time, and still sounds complete. Even some of the pieces written for secular settings work fine for post-service.
All of these are on SoundCloud and fun to practice with the accompaniment.

Good suggestion. Thank you.
I listened to those, and yes, I have found two more that meet my needs. _________________ Matt Finley https://mattfinley.bandcamp.com/releases

I would suggest the 12 Telemann Heroic pieces, short, would sound great in a church |
