50+50 Trumpet Triathlon

By Don Bowyer

This piece for solo trumpet was commissioned by Mrs. Yvonne Graves for Dr. Carolyn Sanders in honor of a special birthday. The three movements of this theatre piece are meant to represent the three stages of a triathlon. Each movement contains precisely 100 notes.  This piece was premiered at my faculty composition recital on September 8, 2007.  Click on the title to watch a video of this piece.
