According to oral sources, the 6 Aufzugsmusiken, which are presented here for the first time as a complete practical edition, originate from the church of Schnaitsee in Upper Bavaria; the composer is anonymous. They are easy, two-part pieces which were played by the town pipers at secular or religious festivals until the last century. The arrangements are unique in the old trumpet literature, as they contain both the trumpet tuning and instrumentation instructions.

These six trios are in four different keys that are easy to play, even for beginners. Small preludes and postludes are included to frame the arrangements. The sheet music in this edition is notated in bass clef. Content: 1. Guten Abend, gute Nacht 2. Bruder Jakob 3. Weißt du, wieviel Sternlein stehen 4. Guter Mond, du gehst so stille 5. Dat du min Leevsten büst

Samuel Scheidt (1587-1654) composed this early Baroque instrumental piece, which was published in 1621 and describes a war situation, for 4 to 5 wind instruments (2 cornetts and 3 trombones) and basso continuo. This arrangement transposes the composition and changes the part-writing in the lower parts, making the Battaglia very easy to play.
