Easy Solos for Trumpet

At the Clarinet Institute, we know that much of our music can be challenging. That’s why we created this special collection of easy trumpet pieces, designed for players who want to enjoy making music—without the stress.

Whether you’re someone who played trumpet in high school or college and are just getting back into it, or you’re an elementary-to-intermediate player looking for more approachable material, this collection is for you.

This archive includes:

  • 52 pieces for trumpet and piano—one for every week of the year
  • Sheet music and sound files for every piece
  • Recordings that work on both PC and Mac
  • Files playable on computers, phones, tablets, and home stereos

To make things even easier, we’ve included alternate recordings of the more difficult pieces slowed down by 15%—just enough to take the edge off while still sounding musical and fun to play.

These are truly easy pieces. While some offer a bit more of a challenge, everything stays comfortably within a playable range—no notes higher than G on top of the staff, and no advanced techniques required. The music is familiar, the tempos are reasonable, and the piano accompaniments make every piece enjoyable to play through.

Perfect for players of all ages—returning trumpeters and new learners alike.

Get Instant Access with Digital Downloads
You can start exploring your sheet music archive right away with our digital download option! Just a few important things to know before you begin:

  1. Download Link – After purchase, you’ll receive a secure link to download your files.
  2. Large .ZIP Files – These are big! Make sure you have enough space on your hard drive before starting the download. If you’re unfamiliar with .zip files, please look up how to unzip them before downloading.
  3. Use a Computer – Don’t try to download on a smartphone or tablet—most mobile devices don’t handle large files well.
  4. Stable Connection Needed – Use a strong home WiFi or wired connection. Avoid public networks like Starbucks WiFi, which can be unreliable.
  5. Be Patient – These large files can take time to download. Once you click “Download,” give it some time—especially on slower connections. Check your Downloads folder when it’s done.

If you’ve got a solid internet connection at home, digital downloads are a fast, easy way to dive into your music archive today!

This archive contains two types of files:

  • PDF files – These are the sheet music.
  • MP3 files – These high-quality recordings can be played on your computer, stereo, phone, or tablet.

How to Use This Music

Each piece includes two MP3 tracks:

  1. A full recording with trumpet and accompaniment
  2. An accompaniment-only version at the same tempo

We recommend starting with the full recording to get a sense of the tempo and musical flow. All tracks include count-off taps to help you begin.

Note: The disc version contains data files and will not play in standard CD or DVD audio players.
