Erik Veldkamp’s all-new, 50-quartet collection of jazz tunes for 4 trumpets is now available in five volumes of 10 quartets each. There is a wonderful mix of Jazz Standards and originals from Erik himself, with more than enough here to challenge players at all levels. These 5 books get gradually and progressively more difficult, are very idiomatic, expertly arranged, and an absolute delight to both perform and listen to. The quartets you find here are at home both in the studio, the home, and the concert hall and make great material for performance opportunities of all sorts.
If you are used to pulling out the Mancini Quartets when you have a trumpet hang, I think you will be VERY happy to have picked up this new set instead. These are true quartets where each player is vital, and each sits extremely well on the horn.
A purchase includes trumpet parts 1 through 4, as well as recordings of all 10 quartets by Erik himself. We have included a quartet for free in the samples to the left, along with its respective recording below. After you check it out and consult the song list, click above for an immediate digital download.
