Music for three trumpets

Hi , I hope you will enjoy it ! I tried to compose something for three trumpets, please tell me what do you think :D

Positive and negative feedback is of course welcome !

The pdf has a TAB section because it is done via GuitarPro:

EDIT : The pdf now displays all the instruments thanks :) , but the MIDI is doing fine!

EDIT*2 : The piece is updated , thanks Muzic!

well, let's see guitar pro sucks , I'd suggest finale, um I listened to the mid and read the score the score only show's one instrument and the midi only play's one instrument, and the midi sounds like the whole thing is whole notes.

i like your style!

I like it but its a bit short. I seems like you could have developed it more because it ended sorta of abruptly.

A few tips, just on orchestration matters:

Trumpet players like to breathe - make sure you let them.

Just because something's in range of an instrument, doesn't mean you can stay there all the time. Very few trumpet players will be able to play around top C for a prolonged period of time.

Trumpets can only play one note at a time, last time I checked.

:)

cool

thanks Mark :D i've never written something for trumpets before, i forgot how it was played !

I like it the ending a lot more good job.

thank you ! the piece is better now thanks to you :D

thank you ! the piece is better now thanks to you :D

lol no problem:thumbsup:

I think this sounds really nice!

The harmonies are much more coherent and clear than the earlier versions. I think that in the middle section, the voices were crossing over each other a little bit, which contributed to its muddiness. The counterpoint SOUNDS ok, but looking at the score, I do see some of the crossing I was talking about earlier. The theme sounds great! I like it a lot. Keep working!

:)

listening to it again, the last phrase could be extended... the last note comes a little bit too early.

Thank you very much for the comments !

maelstromtempest : I will work on it ! Thanks for the analysis:)

I liked very nice theme and very baroqueish, good job, but like commented before:

the trumpet play one note only, and remember the breathing! :D

Great job!

This isn't playable at all. The score is a mess, it isn't even in the right octave for the trumpets. Pretty much everything about it is wrong, I'm sorry.

I suggest buying an orchestration book and studying it. If you're a guitar player by trade I understand where youre coming from to an extent (I'm a trumpet player, but I'm obviously a human being as well)

Acctually I am a trumpet player and the range is do able its just a bit high but its no problem for a really good trumpet player, and the range is nothing compared to some jazz charts. Also he could make it for piccolo trumpet if he wanted too.

I'm well aware, I've been playing trumpet for longer than you have...

I was talking about the SCORE, the score is written in the wrong octave because he's using some weird guitar notation program.

Ya you are right about the score with the tabs.

SimenN: yeah they told me before :D thanks anyway! and remember to check your private messages, I wish to borrow a theme of yours :)

in rainbows 109: thank you for the comments about the score. I really should buy an orchestration book as you said, because my piece is a little "random" about the octaves and on. I will work on it !

This is very nice
