Biography

Tine Thing Helseth was born in Oslo. Her mother was an amateur trumpeter and there is a strong tradition of wind bands in primary schools in Norway so it was not unusual that she began to study the trumpet at the age of seven. When Tine began to attend evening classes at the Barratt Due Institute of Music in Oslo, she was introduced to the world of classical music and to string players and ...

Product Description

CD Description

The young Norwegian trumpeter Tine Thing Helseth tells stories of love and loss on her solo debut CD for EMI Classics. She performs a programme of songs by Grieg, Strauss, Sibelius, Ravel, Canteloube and Weill, among others, transcribed for trumpet with either piano or orchestral accompaniment. Tine s musical collaborators are pianist Håvard Gimse and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Eivind Aadland.

I ve been playing songs in recital for two or three years now and they are always very special to me , said Tine recently. Although you lose the words, you have to play as though they were still there. To move an audience with a very simple tune is one of the hardest things to do yet it is a wonderful feeling. EMI Classics Vice President of A&R Andrew Cornall, who also produced this recording said, Tine is playing the trumpet but she s also the singer. The disc shows off her immense artistry, her range of colour and dynamics and the beauty of her tone.

Edvard Grieg s song cycle Haugtussa, based on the epic poem cycle by the Norwegian writer Arne Garborg is at the heart of the CD. It is a favourite of Tine s and the reason she wanted her first EMI disc to feature song transcriptions. When you read the [Haugtussa] poems, there is a happy ending but, for some reason, Grieg chose to make the ending sad. All eight songs are beautiful but so different in character. The music deserves to shine by itself. Grieg is an obvious choice for a Norwegian performer but the other songs on the CD, by German, French, Russian and Czech composers, are equally compelling. The surprise on this disc is perhaps the inclusion of Epílogo (Noche de luna) by the Spanish composer José María Cano (b1959).

5.0 out of 5 stars Tine Thing 27 Jun 2012

This is a fabulous CD, astonishingly beautiful playing from the soloist, beautifully accompanied by orchestra in some pieces, piano in others, with very good balance. The duo work with the pianist in the Grieg songs is excellent. I've lost count now how many copies I've got for friends. Can't recommend highly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Andre Legacy Lives On 10 Mar 2012
By Woodcutter - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The recent passing of Maurice Andre on 2/25/12 left a large and unique void at the top of the classical music world for trumpeters. Then I heard Tine Thing Helseth on NPR classical a couple of weeks ago and the world became much brighter. Once more we discover that you don't have to play loud to blow people away. This CD has exceeded my already high expectations. Her playing is amazing and the choice of material outstanding.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another triumph for Helseth: the most vocal of all trumpeters 25 Jan 2012
By goodmusicman - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Tine Helseth's debut album for EMI Classics, featuring transcriptions for trumpet (with orchestra or piano) of songs by many of the greatest classical composers, is a triumphant success. As I noted in my reviews for her previous albums on Simax (Trumpet Concertos, My Heart Is Ever Present, A Tribute To The Northern Winds), Helseth produces the most vocal tone that I have ever heard on the trumpet. Naturally, that tone suits this album perfectly. The trumpet, as played by Helseth, is as expressive as the human voice. In the notes, she is quoted as saying, "my sound is my voice." Further, she says that "to move the audience with a very simple tune is the most difficult thing." Well, she succeeds 100% on both counts on this album. Here we hear lovely melodies that, though composed for voice, sound like they were composed for the trumpet--at least the way Helseth plays it! That sweet, shimmering and extremely polished sound that were featured on her previous three albums is here in abundance. The result: one of the most enjoyable and relaxing music albums you will ever hear. It is especially nice that a complete song cycle from Edvard Grieg, Norway's greatest composer, is featured here, played by Norway's greatest trumpeter. The opening melody by Rachmaninov transports you to a different world and you are not brought back until the end of the closing melody by Kurt Weill.

The accompaniment by the Royal Liverpool PO is outstanding in every track that they are featured. Pianist Havard Gimse provides the accompaniment to the Grieg cycle and the last track by Weill and he is the perfect partner to Helseth; his playing is sensitive and atmospheric. EMI provides absolutely vivid and realistic sound for this album--demonstration quality in every sense. Thankfully, we have a tasteful picture of Helseth's face and a trumpet on the front, as opposed to the glamor-shot photos that do not belong on classical albums. This CD once again proves that Helseth is on her way to becoming the premier trumpeter of our generation.

4.0 out of 5 stars Album Title is Correct! 16 Dec 2012
By W. A. Keele - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Quite the storyteller indeed. Being an American though, her vibrato almost ruins it at times for me. Debated on three starts, but I didn't want to hold our cultural differences on vibrato that high for a great album. The sound on her horn of choice is a bit too uniform and lacks the depth of color I really look for when someone puts this amount of effort into the emotional presentation. For me, it would probably be closer to a deep emotional experience otherwise--the differences between a great performance and an amazing performance.
