Trinity Performance Edition showcases previously unpublished pieces by contemporary composers, with each edition dedicated to one composer and instrument. Many pieces from across the series have been selected for Trinity syllabuses, while others make great transition pieces between grades. All are perfect for concert performance, and you’ll find a range of playing standards in each book. Performance notes, written by the composer, are available online along with further digital resources at trinitycollege.com/music-books.
I Azul desde el chinchorro (blue from the hammock)
A vision of the blue sky while rocking on a chinchorro (hammock).
This piece should be played smoothly with rhythmic precision.
II Mañanita azul (blue morning)
This piece is about the very early-morning, hazy blue light.
Clear dynamic contrast is very important.
III Azul entre nubes (blue between clouds)
The image of clouds moving... a blue background.
Absolute differentiation of the simple and compound time signatures is required.
IV Entre azules (between blues)
In the sea, surrounded by different tonalities of blue.
This piece should be played like a popular song, fluently, pausing at cadence points and then regaining the tempo to continue.
V Azulejo (bluebird)
Azulejo is a beautiful blue bird, fragile.
Enjoy the gentle rhythmic patter that the bass produces with the melody suspended above it.
VI Azul oscuro (dark blue)
The dark blue in winter, Christmas.
Clarity of slurs (on both single and double notes) is needed.
VII Tu azul (your blue)
This is a love song.
Keep a legato line in the melody, and give enough space for the resonances to prevail.
VIII Azulcielo (sky blue)
Being overwhelmed by a wonderful spotless blue sky.
Play this piece with rhythm and energy.
IX Stay
A sad love song.
Leave the fingers in position to sustain the full chords, and play the accompaniment softly enough to allow the melody to ‘shine’.
