About This Work

Henry Purcell was one of the greatest composers of the Baroque period and one of the greatest of all English composers. His earliest surviving works date from 1680 but already show a complete command of the craft of composition. They include the fantasias for viols, masterpieces of contrapuntal writing in the old style, and some at least of the more modern sonatas for violins, which reveal some acquaintance with Italian models. Purcell’s works also include a number of Trumpet Voluntaries As with all trumpet voluntaries, these were written for organ utilizing the trumpet stop, hence the name. Geoff Kingston has arranged ‘Trumpet Tune and Air’ for Solo Trumpet and Concert band. Always fashionable at weddings, concerts and joyous occasions these are ideal showcases for the young performer.
