Selected Duets for Trumpet, Page 6 Number 6, Hunting Scene, performed by David Summer.
This duet invokes an image of a European style hunting expedition, complete with the sounding of the hunting horn (the "Trompe-de-Chasse"), from which the modern French Horn is descended.
The time signature for this duet is 6/8. When 6/8 is at a fast tempo, it's often said to be "in 2". The performer heavily accents 2 beats to a measure, the first and the fourth beats.
The metronome setting for this performance is dotted quarter note = 72.
