Et Orchestre. Par TOMASI HENRI. Composed by Henri Tomasi, this version of Semaine Sainte à Cuzco is arranged for Trumpet and Piano (or Organ). Dedicated to Maurice Andre, this piece is difficult and requires the skills of an advanced Trumpet player. This work sounds really nice and would work very well for a recital. It is divided in three main movements, the third one being a repetition of the main theme (first movement). Henri Tomasi also composed a variety of concerti for Alto Saxophone and for Trombone, as well as some ballades./ Répertoire / Trompette et Piano
