August 19, 20196 yr This is my 3rd soliloquy for trumpet. I have also written a set of "Three Sententiae for Trumpet and Piano, Op. 296", which, like the two previous soliloquies for trumpet, were composed in April 2017. I have provided the transposing score for the trumpet in Bb, as in all the previous trumpet pieces I have posted here. Here's the link to my 2nd soliloquy for trumpet: https://www.youngcomposers.com/t34999/soliloquy-for-trumpet-no-2/
September 6, 20196 yr This one stands out to me a little bit. I don't know if you're intentionally breaking sentence form, but it has varying degrees of success, in my opinion. In section A I think it works well enough with kind of a joke cadential tail. The second portion seems more like a lot of repetition without as much dedication to fragmentary elaboration which made the piece lost a little steam by the end.
September 15, 20196 yr I also thought it lost a little steam at the end - but also, go you for this being your 3rd soliloquy!
