About this listen

 Selected Duets for Trumpet, Page 38 Number 4, Rondo, performed by David Summer. Michel de la Barre, the composer of this duet, was also a famous flutist. He is credited with being the first composer to publish music for solo flute. This duet does have a somewhat delicate, flute-like quality to it. The duet is in the key of F# minor, with a brief foray into C# minor, and contains several E sharps and B sharps that should be pointed out to the student. This is a good opportunity for the teacher to review the concept of enharmonic notes. The held-over notes in lines 3 and 6 may also present a rhythmic challenge for a student. The teacher may want to assign both parts of this duet to a student since both parts are generally of equal melodic importance. The metronome setting for this performance is quarter note = 108.
