About the 6 Fantasias
Orlando Gibbons' (1583-1625) duets for treble instruments, edited here for two trumpets (in C, Bb or flugelhorn), hold extraordinary musical value. These Six Fantasias give one a taste of Gibbons' genius and a look into the character of the Golden Age of English music.
They are deceptively challenging and incredibly fun to play. The choice of dynamics, articulations, and tempi are proposed to blend the polyphonic style with the idiomatic personality of the trumpet. Feel free to use your own musical markings!
These gems will bring enrichment and joy to performers and audiences.
