Fired Up! for 5 Trumpets
by David A. Roth
$15.00 (parts only option available for a limited time)
Fired Up! is a swing piece with a performance time of 2:30.
With the range not exceeding a high "C," this tune is accessible to many college and some high school trumpet players.
There is no lead part in the traditional sense; the lead part is shared among the section, giving each player a section in which they can be heard on lead.
There is also a small improv section which includes a transcription of the solo as played by Barry Springer at the premiere. You may choose to play the written solo or improvise one of your own.
Fired Up! for 5 Trumpets was written in honor of master trumpet teacher Bill Adam. The work was titled "Fired Up!" because this is an expression Mr. Adam often uses to start a trumpet lesson: Let's get this thing fired up! Bill Adam Tribute Website.
