Recently, Adam Unsworth, incredible horn artist and horn
professor at University of Michigan, asked me to create
a version of
Samskara for French Horn. Here is that version. Adam will perform this version during
a faculty recital on February 25, 2010 at the University of Michigan

Bach Transcriptions for Bb Trumpet
Partita 2 for solo violin
This transcription intends to maintain the original key of d minor.
Although this makes for a very diffcult piece for the trumpet
it is a great exercise in ear training and phrasing. I suggest you listen to recordings of violinists and develop your own
sense of phrasing based upon where you need to breathe

Chaconne from Partita 2 for solo violin
This is a transcription of the famous Chaconne from partita 2 for solo violin
Technically and endurance-wise, this is very difficult and, admittedly, may not be the final version of this.
