4.0 out of 5 stars Great Trumpet Music From Great Composers, October 1, 2001

By 

Connor Shivers (Salem, OH USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Virtuoso Trumpet (Audio CD)

This CD was great! It has all sorts of cheerful, skilled trumpeting. It has everything from "Flight of the Bumblebee" to "Carnival of Venice" to "Badinerie." My personal favorite is "Carnival of Venice." I also, however, enjoy "Flight of the Bumblebee", "Badinerie," and "Allegro(the second one)." The trumpeting is very nice, and even SOUNDS challenging. The tone quality is perfect, with no static or mistakes in the CD. All in all, I would recommend this CD to anyone who likes trumpet music, anyone who likes good music, or just anyone who likes music.

This review is from: Virtuoso Trumpet (Audio CD)

This is a great CD with a lot of interesting trumpet music on it. I bought it so that my 12-year-old, who is learning to play the trumpet, could hear what really great trumpet music sounds like. He has enjoyed it. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because I have found that trumpet solos are kind of hard to listen to, one after another. The trumpet is a shrill-sounding instrument!
