Concerto for Trumpet No. 1 'Trumpet Town', for Trumpet and Piano

This advanced work by Otto M. Schwarz is full of exciting time changes that follow affect the pulse rhythmically and melodically, in exciting and unexpected ways. The solo trumpet's displays of technical prowess and bravura alternate with the film score- like sections of the piano. The slow, almost elegiac, central section can be performed on the flugel horn, while the closing reprise demands that both the soloist give of their best as the piece comes to an exciting, colourful, and uplifting finale.
