Description
Joseph Haydn Trumpet Concerto No. VIIe: 1 has become not only the most important concerto for the trumpet, being required material in nearly every orchestral audition, but with over 20 recorded versions on long-playing records is also the composer’s best-known concerto, rivaled only by similar works by Vivaldi, Bach, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, and a few others.
The only surviving source for the Joseph Haydn Trumpet Concerto is Haydn’s autograph manuscript, now in the library of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Vienna.
A superb edition of Haydn’s increasingly popular Trumpet Concerto, for Trumpet in B Flat or Clarino in E Flat with Piano accompaniment, as edited by Edward H. Tarr and H.C. Robbins Landon
