Descripción
Hummel's trumpet concerto was written in 1803 for the Viennese trumpet virtuoso Anton Weidinger (1767-1852) who had developed a fully chromatic keyed trumpet.
The concerto was originally written in the Key of E but is nowadays more often played in E flat, so it can be comfortably performed on both B flat and E flat trumpets. This edition in E flat has parts for B flat and E flat trumpets.
