David’s collaborative work gained him a prestigious award from the David Walter Charitable Trust of New York for his pioneering activities as a soloist, teacher, publisher, and commissioner of new music for double bass and he works with composers throughout the world to expand the double bass repertoire by commissioning new music and by rediscovering forgotten ones. Since 1983 more than 700 works have been written for him, music from one to twenty basses and from beginner to virtuoso, and he has premiered ten contemporary concertos with orchestra.
David began to compose in 2013 and has had music performed and recorded in 29 countries across five continents. He is a D’Addario Performing Artist and has recently commissioned a solo double bass from British master-luthier Martin Penning.
A Fanfare for Friends by David Heyes exists in two versions: 3 Trumpets & Timpani or 3 Trumpets – both are based on the same…
‘A Fanfare for Friends’ is dedicated to Patricia & Ian Stewart to celebrate their 35th wedding anniversary. The celebratory feel was described by a young trumpeter as “a very fanfarey fanfare” and lasting around 1’11 the piece is bright, triumphal and full of energy. The fanfare effects are contrasted by a syncopated theme and the effect should be on of joy and exultation.
The composer suggests that the version for 3 trumpets and timpani could be played by larger forces, possibly 9 trumpets and two sets of timpani with the syncopated passages played by fewer trumpets to contrast the more martial figures.
