Hello--I have been lurking for a couple of months and enjoying the lively discussion about so many different aspects of being a vocalist.
My husband is a trumpet player (and I'm a soprano with a comfortable performing range to about high C--higher if pressed). We have performed the customary "Let the Bright Seraphim," Scarlatti suite and the Melani "Al'armi pensieri" as well as some things he has arranged for me to sing with his brass quintet (worked pretty well). I am desperately seeking something else for a recital, maybe something more modern, for soprano & trumpet (small continuo is doable--orchestra isn't). It could be piccolo trumpet, it could be fluegelhorn--I'd love something turn-of-the-century American for cornet & voice.
Does anyone have any recommendations or special gems that we've overlooked? As much as I love the above, I'd like to expand our horizons a little.
Thank you so much for your help!
Joan Daugherty, Chicago, IL
