	This is the Baroque era fanfare used by the CBS "Sunday Morning" show. It was originally performed for the show by natural trumpeter Don Smithers, but now is done (not nearly as well, mind you) by Doc Severinsen. This piece has been attributed to a number of composers, including Gottfried Reiche and Samuel Scheidt.

	This very delicate work for trumpet and organ features a flowing melody over somewhat slow-moving pedals.The melody grows out of its own simple, one-bar motive, rising in height and energy and then returning to its softerorigins. The organ part has a brief interlude before the return of the final trumpet statement.
