Hopewell Farmscapes
Third Movement from Hopewell Suite
for Trumpet
Ensemble
by Eddie Lewis
Hopewell Suite is a trumpet ensemble composition for four
trumpets and two flugelhorns. It was composed in 2016 using inspirations Eddie
Lewis collected while he was in South Africa for the jazz festival in
Grahamstown, in the Eastern Cape.
Hopewell is the name of the farm where Eddie and his wife
stayed most of the time while they were in South Africa. The farm is owned by
their brother-in-law.
While Hopewell Farm was not the first farm Eddie ever
visited, it is more common for him to see the farms from outside the fences. As
a guest at Hopewell, Eddie had many opportunities to explore the land,
accompanying his brother-in-law as he took care of the cattle. Some of this was
on foot and sometimes they drove (off road) across the property in a bakkie.
The scenes, the smells, the sounds, all of it calls out gladly to welcome you.
