We recently included Trumpet Voluntary no 5 by John Stanley (arr P.H
Greenwood) in a concert program. As the front row cornet player who
played the solo part for this piece also plays trumpet in a wind band we
tried the piece with her playing the solo on trumpet. It sounded good
with the trumpet carrying much better over the rest of the band than the
same part played on a cornet. There was also a nice contrast between the
solo playing and the parts where the tune is taken over by the rest of
the front row cornets. The audience at the concert obviously enjoyed
this piece by their enthusiastic applause and favourable comments
afterwards.
