Page34 #1, Rondinetto

Selected Duets for Trumpet, Page 34 Number 1, Rondinetto, performed by David Summer. The composer of this duet, Louis A. Saint-Jacome, was also a solo cornetist and musical arranger. Originally from Paris France, Saint-Jacome moved to London, England where he worked as a musical arranger for the Messieurs La Fleur Publishing Company. While there, Saint-Jacome wrote his famous Grand Method For Trumpet Or Cornet in 1870. This comprehensive trumpet or cornet method book is still in wide use today, having been edited by another famous trumpeter, Claude Gordon. Later in his life Saint-Jacome became cornet tuner and tester for the Besson brass instrument company in London. This duet begins in the key of Bb and then changes to Bb minor in the Trio section. Usually this section is played a bit slower than the rest of the piece, but while making this recording I've kept the tempo consistent for the sake of the play along track that accompanies this podcast. In this recording, there are no repeats taken except for the DS and the metronome setting for this performance is quarter note = 84.
