Guise Jean François de
5 Pieces for Trumpet and Organ or Piano
op. 14, no. 2

These 5 pieces for trumpet and organ or piano were composed in memory of Jean Langlais, one of Jean François de Guise's teachers.
Composed entirely in the tradition of French church music, these pieces are a real homage. All the pieces captivate by their "simplicity". And, although they belong to contemporary music, wonderful meditative sounds and passages emerge.
Since the accompaniment is mostly only a few small chords or two-part lines and also the trumpet part looks unspectacular, the pieces suggest to be suitable for beginners. This is not the case! Because there is so little musical material, every note counts. The sound balance in the piece is always parity. So they are not typical solo pieces with accompaniment.
