Product Description
Product Description
Tine Thing Helseth performs the four pieces featured on this her debut recording with natural spontaneity and a unique quality of sound, interpreting the most famous of these the Haydn concerto with authority and a phenomenal variation of colour in her sound. Alongside the internationally acclaimed Norwegian Chamber Orchestra she presents a reading that sets a new standard for this concerto. The music is captured in transparent and brilliant Hybrid SACD sound (and plays on all CD players) in Jar church, Oslo.
Born in 1987, Tine belongs to a new generation of Norwegian soloists and indeed a new generation of brass soloists all together, who are more influenced by the idiom of string players and singers than used to be the case. Tine's approach to music is refreshingly focused and straightforward - with an extra touch of artistic magic that reaches everyone who hears her playing. Her studies with Arnulf Naur Nilsen of the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra have further strengthened her natural abilities as a performer and communicator.
In 2006 Tine was awarded 2nd Prize in the 2006 Eurovision Young Musicians finale in Vienna. Her fresh, effortless and musical playing amazed and exited both audience and jury. Orchestras and conductors responded immediately to this extraordinary talent, resulting in a number of appearances as soloist with orchestras both in Europe and in Asia.

I came across a YouTube clip of this girl while looking for something else. She was playing the third movement of the Haydn. It was such a nice, fluid rendition that I bought the SACD (this one).
Tine Thing Helseth is a twentysomething Norwegian with lungs the size of a Zeppelin somehow concealed within a slender frame. Her technique is flawless, at least to these ears, her tone warm and gorgeous. She is ably accompanied by the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra.
The SACD features the two "warhorses" of the repertoire, the Haydn and the Hummel, both written for the same man, Anton Weidinger, who had developed a keyed trumpet to overcome the natural instrument's deficiencies. The performances are straightforward, nothing fancy, which is good, because the two are fine pieces of music. The other two concerti, one by Albinoni the other by Neruda, are also pleasant listening. Recommended.

This is a great début CD by this young Norwegian trumpeteress. There may be better recordings of each of these concerti out there, (most notably Hardenberger's Albinoni, Edward Tarr's Hummel, Niklas Eklund's Neruda, Reinhold Friedrich's Haydn), but Helseth stamps her own individual approach to each of these pieces, and does a great job on each one. Her playing style is very fluid and she clearly has a stunning technique and a lovely tone (if a little heavy on the vibrato at times).
One small disappointment is that Helseth chooses to use the publisher's cadenza in the Neruda, rather than writing her own, but she plays David Hickman's cadenza with a vibrant and fresh approach.
A very worthwhile addition to any trumpet player's CD collection.

Came across Hadyn's trumpet concerto in my piano book (yeah) and thought hey, let's check out what the concerto sounds like, and Tine's was one of the first hits on youtube. Got the mp3s off amazon minutes later. Sounds like an easy melody to play, but to get it so evocative as what she's done is no easy task.

This C D is terrific if you like the trumpet, I play it in my car very loud. Tine Thing Helseth is absolutely amazing. This is a good buy.
