Wiliam Boyce: Trumpet Voluntary in D major

played by Cathy Peacock (trumpet) and Mervyn Payne (organ)



Also in this Voluntary the first movement normally is omitted and only the second is played. I made an arrangement of this second movement with several repetitions (something like a rondo) for trumpet, trombone and organ, so it is long enough for my bridegroom and me to walk all the way out of the church: My bridegroom is in fact walking disabled; he is paraplegic, but fortunately he is able to walk with the help of an exoskeleton and crutches.
