5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent Baroque Interpretations!, December 16, 2007

This review is from: Sergei Nakariakov ~ Baroque Trumpet Concertos (Audio CD)

This album is a great resource for anyone who wants to hear Baroque music played at an extremely professional level!
All but one of the concertos on this album were intended for other instruments such as oboe, voice, or violin. Sergei does an excellent job of capturing the spirit of the instrumens these pieces were originally composed for. He has a brilliant tone, that is not too bright like some other baroque trumpet recordings I have heard. His phrasing and use of dynamic changes draws the listener into the piece, and makes it an emotional experience. This must be why he has been dubbed "the Paganini of the Trumpet."
He uses a B-flat Piccolo trumpet for most of the pieces, and the sounds he produces from this little instrument are nothing short of amazing. On the Neruda Concerto, he uses a regular B-flat trumpet, and he still achieves a shimmering sound, and his use of trills especially propel the music forward. He uses a flugelhorn on Bach's Agnus Dei, which was originally an Alto aria. He captures the essence of the human voice through his lyrical and dark sound.
This album comes highly recommended, especially for those of you who like Baroque music, played by a master of their insrument!

I love the music on this CD. The Neruda is my favorite, it hasn't been recorded many times, but is of the same caliber as the Haydn and the Hummel. This is a good CD for any baroque music listener or trumpet music listener.

This review is from: Sergei Nakariakov ~ Baroque Trumpet Concertos (Audio CD)

Nakariakov is one of the best; an overused phrase but when you hear musicianship like this, it's an appropriate one. He plays like we all would want to! An excellent addition to anyone's recordings library!
