Composer: Bach, Johann Sebastian
Transcriber: Millsap, Kyle
Number of Trumpets: 7
Key: D Major concert
Duration: 3 minutes
Difficulty: 7
A beautiful transcription of of this standard Baroque show stopper. The original trumpet part is preserved with the intertwining lines beautifully juxtaposed. Sounds great. The difficulty grade of 7 is only because of the piccolo trumpet part. Otherwise it would be a grade 5. Highly recommended. The recording is by Niklaus Egg of Berne, Switzerland.
ITG Journal, October 2014, page 101:
"...this well-crafted adaptation works brilliantly...works wonderfully for teaching Baroque style to a university trumpet studio that might not normally have the opportunity to perform this work."
