Selected Duets for Trumpet, Page 25 Number 1, Moderato, performed by David Summer. This duet begins a section of 5 duets by Pierre François Clodomir. Clodomir, a 19th century French composer, wrote a brass method book, published in 1870 entitled "Méthode élémetaire de cornet à pistons". In this first duet in the series, special attention should be paid to the syncopated 2nd trumpet part in the 4th line. Also, right before the daCapo, this duet contains a brief “question and answer” section, as we've seen in several of the previous duets. The metronome setting for this performance is quarter note = 100.
