This is a collection of over 200 melodies and songs from a period of over 750 years to be played and enjoyed by trumpet players of all levels.These are not only wonderful examples of music but the chronological juxtaposition of serious and vernacular music sheds an interesting light on social history. Some are well known, maybe even banal, others may be quite obscure; however all this music deserves to be played, cherished and preserved.Each one is self-sufficient, able to be played solo. However, my own compositions at the end do have an optional piano accompaniment which is available from the Recreational Musician website.
