Product Description

Amazon.co.uk

Wynton Marsalis may not have an easily recognizable or even particularly handsome tone, but this erstwhile jazz trumpeter is an amazing virtuoso with a fine sense of classical style. If you've never owned/heard any of his classical CDs, and you love (mostly baroque) trumpet music, this compilation--a sort of "greatest hits"--is for you. From such cruddy, sensationalistic works as Carnival of Venice to the glories of Haydn's E-Flat Concerto, this is grand entertainment. Marsalis is joined by Kathleen Battle in an exciting version of Handel's "Let the bright seraphim," and the treat there is doubled. A fine piece by Hovhaness for trumpet and organ, never before released, is another surprise. Come listen to the endless, seemingly casual roulades that come out of this guy's trumpet--they'll wake you right up. --Robert Levine

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent dinner music 25 Jan 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This is super music for most occassions: before dinner, background to dining or just chilling out to familiar tunes played really, really well. As the ultimate recommendation, I am often asked 'What is this really marvellous music?'

Highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars This is a medley of extracts from the works listed. 15 April 2000
By johnandsybil@aol.com
Format:Audio CD
Wonderful playing by the ineffable Marsallis but....deeply frustrating that one only hears parts of the works listed. This is not clear from the catalogue.
