Description: In the World of Children is an eclectic, spirited showpiece for advanced trumpet players. The opening theme is both rhythmic and singing, with an angular melody which dances above a driving mixed meter accompaniment. The middle section is tender and reflective, ending with a cadenza that builds towards a triumphant recapitulation of the main theme. Throughout the work, the composer utilizes a rich harmonic pallette, encompassing jazz, modal, and romantic elements. Not for the faint of heart, the soloist is required to push the limits of range, precision, and tonal control while demonstrating mature expressive phrasing throughout. These demands are well-rewarded however, for the player ready for an unforgettable recital or contest performance.
