Play-along video
The Lacrimosa is one of the most moving pieces of sacred music, and this arrangement lets the trumpet carry its sorrowful, rising melody.
It is suitable for memorial services, concerts and recitals, and ideal for working on expressive phrasing and controlled crescendos. PDF sheet music is available.
Practice tips
- Keep the sound noble and sustained.
- Build the long crescendos gradually.
- Feel the 12/8 pulse under the melody.
