Guise Jean François de
Entrata per due Trombi, Corno, Trombone e Tuba in stile antico
op. 17, No. 6

This old-style entrata can certainly be described as unusual for today's usual way of composing.
Now the question arises: Why do you write a piece today, of which there are already countless numbers and which were written in the “right” time?
Very easily. For the fun of the brass music of the 16th century.
Because Jean François de Guise, who came into contact with this music as a trumpeter from early childhood and performed it himself in various ensembles, wanted to prove that composers are still able to do something similar to what their colleagues from the time of the great master of wind music.
Since it was not yet customary to draw in dynamics or articulation when the "original" works were created, the composer has decided not to use them in this edition either.
All in all, we can advise interested wind players to look at and perform this composition in the same way as the usual intrades, allemand and game music.
