I’m writing to remind folks about Sentinels, a newly reissued fanfare for two trumpets first recorded by Ivano Ascari and Gary Malvern. Written in the wake of September 11th, the image before my mind’s eye was that of two towering, isolated individuals — shadow figures in some tragic sense — invoked by the terrible events of that day. It might be a fitting way to commemorate that dark chapter in American history.

Publication information is listed below. The score is available directly from me, from The Newmatic Press www.newmaticpress.com, from J.W. Pepper www.jwpepper.com/Sentinels/11213304.item or from your favorite music retailer. (Through July 4th use the special pull-down at www.newmaticpress.com/publications/chamber to get over 30% off the cost of two copies.) You can see and hear the piece at the YouTube link below.

All best wishes,

You can read a review of "Sentinels" in the March 2022 Issue of the International Trumpet Guild Journal (excerpted below):

Quote:
Kilstofte, Mark. Sentinels. Two Trumpets. The Newmatic Press, 2020.

Sentinels for two trumpets is approximately 2'30" in duration with a ternary form. The opening and final sections employ call and response between the two trumpets, as well as some effective hocket triplet effects. The middle section begins slowly and freely, but quickly accelerates and builds in intensity. Overall, both sections focus on the heroic aspects of trumpet playing.

This is an excellent short work for two trumpets, and implementing [Kilstofte's performance] recommendations will undoubtedly increase interest and effectiveness. Look no further for an excellent concert opener or fanfare type composition for civic type events. (Luis C. Engelke, Music Reviews editor, professor of trumpet, Towson University, Towson, MD)
