	Description:		Selected Duets for Trumpet, Page 12 Number 6, Adagio, performed by David Summer. Simply entitled Adagio, this 18th Century duet can prove a challenge for students in a several areas. First is keeping a steady tempo at this slow tempo. Students are prone to rush, especially when playing the 1st trumpet solo passages. Next are the 32nd notes that occur in the 3rd beat in several measures. I sometimes instruct my students to think of these are if they were grace notes, which they may well have been in the original version of this piece. Also slurring these 32nd notes may challenge the student, particularly as they occur in an ascending passage. The advice I give here is to make a slight "flick" of the tongue, while making sure to maintain the air stream, when you get to these notes. The metronome setting for this performance is quarter note = 72.
