Henry Purcell - Trumpet Tune and Air

Heard this on the radio today, first time, and was floored. Talk about a masculine piece of music to choreograph and program for!

I like that!!

If you liked that, I suggest Handel's Royal Fireworks.

Indeed I'm familiar with Handel's Royal Fireworks.

Re, the piece above, the version I heard on the radio had the second section played on the organ, which was very nice, as opposed to brass. The contrast made sense. Either way I find it an inspiring piece.
