Description
Hear Haydn's famous and much-loved trumpet concerto, together with the startingly forward-looking trumpet concerto by Hummel, as you have rarely heard them beforeâon the remarkable Klappentrompet for which they were originally written. Crispian Steele-Perkins confirms his reputation as the world's greatest period instrument trumpeter with playing not only of his customary musicality, but of phenomenal technical assurance, in five astonishing concerto performances. The tonal colours of the instruments he uses, an extraordinary panoply of orchestral colour from the period instruments of The King's Consort, and Robert King's dramatic direction make this a benchmark CD for all fans of the trumpet, fans of the King's Consort, and indeed for all collectors of classical concertos. Also on the disc are three true concerto rarities, by Johann Hertel, Mozart's father Leopold, and Haydn's highly talented younger brother Michael. An altogether unmissable CD!
