Johann Nepomuk Hummel wrote his Concerto a Trombe Principale (Trumpet Concerto in E Major) for Viennese trumpet virtuoso and inventor of the keyed trumpet, Anton Weidinger (as had Joseph Haydn). It was written in December 1803 and performed on New Year’s Day 1804 to mark Hummel’s entrance into the court orchestra of Nikolaus II, Prince Esterházy as Haydn’s successor.

As one of the most important pieces in our repertoire, this listing is complete with a freshly engraved trumpet part for both Eb and Bb trumpets, along with a piano reduction. All of these are in one file for easy use, and with perfect page turns for double sided printing.
