Page45 #11, Allemande

Selected Duets for Trumpet, Page 45 Number 11, Allemande, performed by David Summer. This third duet in the series by Joseph Boismortier is an Allemande. An allemande is a moderate tempo dance form that was popular during the baroque. An allemande is generally the first or second part of a suite, with a "suite" being a collection of dances. Again there are several "question and answer" sections, as we’ve seen in previous duets. But this time the "answers" start before the end of the "questions". This may prove to be a rhythmic challenge for a student along with the 16th note runs in the second half of the duet. The metronome setting for this performance is quarter note = 84.
