Sonata

Description

This new 3-movement work for Solo Trumpet and Piano accompaniment by composer Sean O’Loughlin is a challenging and musically rewarding contribution to the modern trumpet repertoire. From the Fanfare-Like Opening movement “Wonderment”, to the reflective second movement titled “Dreams” and concluding with the fast-paced and harmonically raucous final movement “Life”, this new Sonata for Trumpet is a worthy addition to any musician’s performance rotation!

Sean O’Loughlin’s new Sonata is going to be a must play in the trumpet repertoire for your high school and college students. The range of technical precision and lyric musicianship really allow the player to shine in the role of a solo artist.

Terry Caviness

My first Sonata for Trumpet and Piano was written for my good friend Terry Caviness. The music reflects my own experiences as a trumpet player in addition to my influences as a composer. In three movements, the composition explores the different colors and styles of the instrument in a modern and exciting way.
