Literatura e interpretación de la trompeta

(Trumpet literature and performance) This work only aims to be a support for the subject Trumpet Literature and Performance, which is a compulsory subject within professional teaching at Andalusian music conservatories, without underestimating the important, praiseworthy and always essential task of teachers, both as refers their analysis and their extensive explanations, which for obvious reasons of space cannot be included here.

The most remarkable aims are:
1.) Understanding of the parallelism existing between the evolution of the instrument throughout history and its significance within the writing of this speciality.
2.) Knowledge about the aesthetic characteristics of the different periods and styles and their application on the performance of the repertoire.
3.) Acquisition of the habit of listening to music in order to broaden one´s musical culture to have a solid basis that permits to define ones own preferences.
4.) Development of the pupil´s capacity to draw objective conclusions from what he/she listens to and apply them to his/her performance.
5.) Stir up the pupil´s interest in performing pieces by great composers of their instrument.
