Pachelbel: Canon in D - Randy Dunn, piccolo trumpet + organ



Uploaded by: HoustonTrumpet
Video Description:
Houston area trumpeter Randy Dunn performs Johann Pachelbel's Canon in D on the piccolo trumpet, accompanied by organ. This selection is frequently heard at weddings, often used as music for the procession of the bridesmaids (and other attendants) or for the entrance and seating of the mothers.
This piece is also one of the best known and most beloved pieces of classical music of all time and is therefore also often heard in concerts, movies, and television progams. It can also be frequently heard in church services, usually for prelude, postlude, communion, or offertory music.

Yes, that's piccolo trumpet in A, which works really well for this piece and many other Baroque period pieces in their original key.

Thank you. Since I have been playing the trumpet for many years (and still love it just as much as ever), I don't see myself stopping any time soon!

Well, actually the piccolo trumpet is more difficult than the standard Bb soprano trumpet for many reasons. (Which is why not very many people play the instrument.) And high notes aren't any easier on it--You still need the same high chops to pull it off. Go to the Blog page of my website and read my article there, "Piccolo Trumpet Answers (FAQs)" for much more info about it. Best wishes and good luck to you!
Thanks! The ... ( 2 weeks ago by HoustonTrumpet)
Thanks! The highest note in this piece is a high concert B, which would be a high C# on the Bb trumpet(or piccolo trumpet in Bb), or high D on the piccolo trumpet in A (as is played here.) So this piece is indeed within your range. Go for it!
Thank you very much ... ( 2 weeks ago by HoustonTrumpet)
Thank you very much! The mouthpiece really does make a big difference. I think that most piccolo trumpet players choose a mouthpiece that is much "smaller" and thinner-sounding than what is actually necessary to get the job done. Your comment, "...hopefully I'm playing like you soon. Inspired me...", is such a great compliment, coming from a fellow trumpeter, and I really appreciate it. Thanks again, and best wishes to you!

Thank you! You're right about the fact that it takes a lot of control, especially at the ends of the phrases. You must be a musician also, I'm guessing, since you noticed and appreciated that. :)

I am planning on publishing this arrangement soon (hopefully) and it will be available for purchase from the Shop page of my website. I'm a bit behind in some projects like this lately due largely to the fact that we are just recovering from being hit by Hurricane Ike. (Had no power for a week, no Internet for almost two weeks!) I've also been busy working on some film score projects as well. Hopefully I will be catching up on everything soon!

Thanks for the nice compliments! I began playing the trumpet at age 11 in 6th grade band, which means that I have been playing for 39 years now (doing the math, you see that I am now aged 50.) But I have been playing this well for many years. You can do it too. Just keep practicing well every day, and if at all possible, find a really good trumpet teacher to help you. Also check out the Blog page of my website regularly (or subscribe to it) for helpful articles that I will be posting there.

ANNOUNCEMENT: My apologies on the delayed responses to the recent comments, but after getting hit by Hurricane Ike, we were without electricity for a week and without Internet connection for two weeks. Things are starting to get back to normal now that all is well and I am finally able to catch up on my email. Best wishes,
Randy
