INACTIVE / IN DEVELOPMENT:
|
|
Here is a showcase of some of the new solo programs I've developed over the past couple of years. If you would like any of these performed at your festival, concert series or university, feel free to get in touch (even the "inactive" programs can easily be "activated" for the right purpose). They each represent months of intense repertoire research, constant revisions, arrangements, re-arrangements as well as weeks of extremely detailed tryout-sessions and rehearsals with my amazing duo partners for whose patience I'm eternally thankful.
In addition to this, I still strive to regularly perform, present and re-discover the vast repertoire for unaccompanied trumpet. From the one-and-only Berio "Sequenza X" (which is technically not a solo piece, I know...) and the rest of the "modern classics" such as Scelsi, Kagel, Stockhausen and Donatoni; to the newer, more experimental pieces; but also all the way back to Sandor Jemnitz' 1938 Sonata, the earliest modern work for solo trumpet, the score of which I've recovered with the help of the lovely people at the Budapest Music Center. Every solo recital is programmed according to the specific situation, and will hopefully include a world premiere of a piece commissioned for the occasion; therefore I haven't made a special page with a preset program.
And, yes, there is also the standard trumpet repertoire, of course. I'm not going to list all your Haydns, Böhmes, Tomasis etc. but I still do play and enjoy them more and more every time I come back to any of them. For some more thoughts and some specific ideas on the performance practice of the particular standard repertoire works, check my article section and FB posts.
