trumpet descant for Festival Canticle
-
I hired a trumpet player for the Easter Vigil. I'm looking for the trumpet descant for the hymn This Is the Feast of Victory For Our God (also known as Festival Canticle). Do you know where I can find it? Thanks!

Check the publisher. That is where I got a full brass quartet plus string bass score. I use the 1st tpt part as the descant.

There is probably one in here:

I just pulled out the full score as referenced by Gamba above. I inherited this copy..price marked is $3.00. LOL. It's scored for Trumpets 1 and 2, Trombones 1 and 2, Tympani, and optional Cello/Bass.

I had the same one when I worked for the Lutherans – I think it was the first printing. Truly worn out, but still serviceable.
If I remember correctly, Tpt. 1 has one or more descants after the first time through the refrain and Tpt. 2 holds down the melody.
