Songs from the Sea for Trumpet

Sea shanties are an important part of the naval tradition of many countries. Just as dancing helped keep sailors fit, so the shanty was sung to lighten the physical strain of the back-breaking tasks of raising the anchors, hoisting the sails and manning the capstan. Relieve the past with these straightforward arrangements for Trumpet which should be played with vitality, excitement and panache.
