CARL FISCHER THE Dauverne Solo Collection For Trumpet In Bb & C Includes Cd

Francois Dauverne was the first trumpet teacher at the famed Paris Conservatory and maintained that post for thirty-five years. He was the teacher of such notable students as Jean Baptiste Arban and Louis Saint-Jacome. As a performer Dauverne was first trumpet in the Paris Opera Orchestra for over thirty years. This collection of solos composed by Dauverne is unique in that they are among the very first solos written for the valved trumpet. Dauverne is credited for being one of the first individuals to play on the valved trumpet in a public performance, and convinced such composers as Berlioz, Rossini, and Meyerbeer to write for the instrument. This collection of six solos was originally composed for solo trumpet and chamber orchestra. Professor Ronnie Ingle has meticulously transcribed and edited these groundbreaking works for solo trumpet, and has made available here for the first time a modern edition for solo trumpet and piano. This is a collection that all trumpeters should have in their library.
