Recently, there has been a revival of interest in Baroque trumpet works, and while the research has grown accordingly, the implications of that research requirefurther examination. Musicians need to be able to give this factual evidence a context, one that is both modern and historical.</p><p>The treatises of Cesare Bendinelli, Girolamo Fantini, and J.E. Altenburg are valuable records that provide insight into the early development of the trumpet. There are also several important modern resources, most notably by Don Smithers and Edward Tarr, which discuss the historical development of the trumpet. One obstacle for modern players is that the works of the Baroque Era were originally played on natural trumpet, an instrument that is now considered a specialty rather than the standard. Trumpet players must thus find ways to reconcile the inherent differences between Baroque and current approaches to playing by combining research from early treatises, important trumpet publications, and technical and philosophical input from performance practice essays.This thesis seeks to construct a paradigm by which trumpet players can make informed performance decisions.</p> 2012-12-13 English text University of Akron / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1350316386 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1350316386 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
