Synopsis

Artistic Solos for Trumpet and Piano by Kenneth Baird is a collection of trumpet solos with piano accompaniment that provides a wide array of performance literature for the advancing trumpet player. Whether it be for contests, festivals, recitals, church services, or more informal performances, trumpeters are very likely to find something appropriate in this collection. Difficulty progresses from approximately level 2 through level 4 ½, although that’s very subjective. All of these will also soon be available for purchase individually, if not already available.

The Piano accompaniment book is published separately and is not included here. It must be purchased separately.
