In Memoriam (Flügelhorn oder Trompete) In Memoriam was composed in 2010 in memory of Gwen Smith, mother of Philip Smith (principal trumpet of the New York Philharmonic) and wife of Derek Smith. As an inspiration for this composition I was moved by the words from an old hymn by Karl Spitta (1801-1859) “We Are the Lord’s”. Although conceived as a flugelhorn piece it could easily work on the trumpet as well. Joseph Turrin, Nov. 2010, Clifton, USA
