Description

Suites for Solo Trumpet presents a transcription of J.S. Bach's 6 Suites for Solo Violoncello (BWV 1007-1012), for solo trumpet. This edition has been expertly transcribed and edited by acclaimed trumpeter and Principal of the Royal Academy of Music in London, Jonathan Freeman-Attwood.

Offering trumpet players a gateway into Bach's iconic Cello Suites, the edition combines technical challenge with the expressive artistry of the great composer. With sensitivity and insight, Freeman-Attwood translates Bach's musical language into a compelling idiom for the trumpet, making it a new cornerstone of the instrument's repertoire. The detailed Preface explains the approach to the transference from the cello before giving the rationales for specific solutions, movement by movement, in the Critical Commentary. This edition is intended for advanced trumpet players, with alternative parts for trumpet in B flat and trumpet in C included.

Praise for the edition:
"It's a gift to the instrument and all who play it." Steven Isserlis, Cello Soloist
"A new bible for trumpet players!" Alison Balsom, Trumpet Soloist
"An outstanding resource." Caleb Hudson, Trumpet Soloist
