Reiner:Sw German Co:Tewinkel - Baroque Trumpet Concertos

The development of the piccolo trumpet has made it possible to tackle both original Baroque trumpet repertoire and transcriptions of works originally intended for oboe, with which it has a comparable tube length. Included here are examples of original trumpet repertoire from composers such as Torelli and Gabrielli working at the Basilica of S. Petronio in Bologna, and by Fasch and Telemann, together with apt transcriptions of oboe compositions by Albinoni and Handel.
