• Welcome to the Pipe Organ Forum! This is a part of the open community Magle International Music Forums focused on pipe organs (also known as "church organs"), organists, organ music and related topics.

    This forum is intended to be a friendly place where technically advanced organists and beginners (or even non-organists) can feel comfortable having discussions and asking questions. We learn by reading and asking questions, and it is hoped that the beginners (or non-organists) will feel free to ask even the simplest questions, and that the more advanced organists will patiently answer these questions. On the other hand, we encourage complex, technical discussions of technique, music, organ-building, etc. The opinions and observations of a diverse group of people from around the world should prove to be interesting and stimulating to all of us.

    As pipe organ discussions can sometimes become lively, it should be pointed out that this is an open forum. Statements made here are the opinion of the poster, and not necessarily that of the forum itself, its administrator, or its moderators.

We strive to make this a friendly and informative forum for anyone interested in pipe organs and organ music.

Just a couple of comments for you. Overall, I like the general sound of it. I personally would have simply wrote it in 3/4. In this case changing the time marker from 6/8 to 3/4 wouldn't make the slightest difference in how it's played, as the quarter note (not the 8th) still equals 110, so the tempo would be unchanged. I only mention this because I assume it was intended for beginners and a lot of beginners to music have difficulty processing a 6/8 time. My only other comment is it's entitled a "trumpet" tune, yet you do not have a trumpet part listed. Most of the time when you make a trumpet tune or a tuba rift the main instrument is the trumpet accompanied by the organ or so. As written, you have an organ accompanied by a bass line.

Thanks for your comments. It's a good idea to write in 3/4 for beginners rather than 6/8. I will do it next time.
About the name, in French I call this music "piece pour trompette d'orgue" and I do not know how to do the same in English.
Please, notice that the melody of this music can also be played by a trumpeter or other wind/wood instrument. For the trumpet & organ version the piece should be in Eb or D to avoid too hight notes. I can do it if someone ask me for. Friendly. J-Paul

Actually, no, I'm saying as it is written, it is an organ accompanied by a bass line. You've got the brackets beside the treble and bass lines, this makes these two lines the organ part. And it would be fine to play in F, it's just that trumpet players would play this in G, which is not too high for a trumpet player.
