Selected Duets for Trumpet, Page 16 Number 12, Merrily, performed by David Summer.
This second duet by Metger, while not strictly a cannon, contains many imitative passages. It's a happy sounding duet, clearly living up to it's tempo marking, "Merrily". Again, since the second trumpet part is rhythmically different from the first trumpet and is often "just behind" the first trumpet, a student can find this duet a special challenge to play with the teacher.
But, that's partly what this podcast is about. If you're seeing this description on iTunes, or another podcast reader, check out the trumpet podcast page on the summersong website, www.summersong.net, for second trumpet play along parts to all of these deuts.
The metronome setting for this performance is quarter note = 126.
