Play-along – I. Prélude
Françaix was a French composer known for his witty, elegant and colourful style. His Sonatine moves from a light, playful Prélude through a graceful Sarabande to a lively Gigue. Practising with the piano part is essential, because the trumpet and piano constantly answer each other.
Practice tips
- Keep the articulation crisp and the sound light.
- Count carefully – the rhythms are tricky.
- Enjoy the humour of the music.
Next movements: II. Sarabande · III. Gigue.
