A Must Have For All Trumpet Players,
By
This review is from: Masters of the Trumpet (Audio CD)
I purchased this recording as a reference recording for my trumpet studio. As I started to listen to it, I realized that it contains some of the absolute greatest classical trumpet recordings there are. Rafael Mendez is mind-blowing, Bud Herseth's rendition of the Haydn Concerto is stunningly flawless and Abblasen is a great way to open this 2-CD set. It contains a sample of almost all the great symphonic trumpeters of the last 50 years. A "must have" doesn't even begin to justify how great this set is ... and at Amazon's price, don't even hesitate. Just click BUY and enjoy. This is one purchase that any trumpet lover will never regret.

fun trumpets,

This review is from: Masters of the Trumpet (Audio CD)
"Masters of The Trumpet" is a simple and accurate title for this 2- disc collection. The recordings cover trumpet/cornet literature ranging from Gabrieli to Stravinsky.
Especially enjoyable moments are Don Smithers playing Reiche's "Abblasen" & Armando Ghitalla's work on Stravinsky's "Marche Royale" (L'Histoire du Soldat). Rafael Mendez sounds as though he has more fun playing than should be legal...exciting!..and Adolph Herseth is a pleasure to hear whether he's playing in "delicate mode" or shattering asteroids with his power. Get this recording. dj

it's difficult for nonmusicians to understand
the difficulty of playing instruments at the level of a virtuoso. it helps when the instrument is isolated and so can be heard and appreciated without interference. this recording is an example.

This was a gift for my son-in-law who is a professional trumpet player in the Marine Corps. He listens to music all the time, everywhere. He really loved it!
