5.0 out of 5 stars
A nice CD,
By
This review is from: Haydn/Hummel: Trumpet Concertos (Audio CD)
I was long a fan of the greatest trumpeter of them all, Maurice André, who has, sadly, now hung up his mouthpiece. However, Mr. Hardenberger is one of a number of worthy successors. The centrepiece of this CD are the two great classical concertos, the Haydn and the Hummel, both, curiously, written for the same man, Anton Weidinger, court trumpeter for the Esterházy family. Weidinger was also an inveterate tinkerer and he constantly sought to make the trumpet play a wider range of notes, by means of extra bits of tube, operated by keys. Haydn was written for the Mk. I and Hummel for the Mk.II Weidinger.
All are played with wonderful fluency and style by Mr. Hardenberger, ably backed by Nev and the ASMF.
5.0 out of 5 stars
More than Just the famous ones,

This review is from: Haydn/Hummel: Trumpet Concertos (Audio CD)
I would just like to add my endorsement of this excellent CD and point out that although many will buy it for the Haydn and the Hummel there are two other gems on it. The Hertel and the Stamitz, particularly the Hertel, are beautiful works that deserve greater recognition. They were new to me when I bought this CD a couple of years ago, so this is how I discovered them - one of the advantages of buying music on CD rather than just downloading the works you know.
5.0 out of 5 stars
throough delight,

This is a fine CD and worth every penny I paid for it. The soloist,
Hakan Hardenbger is excellent and the pieces in this compilation CD are a joy!
