The reason I immersed myself in practicing the trumpet is listening to her beautiful sound. I really appreciate and respect her for great achievements .
Alison Balsom is a fantastic musician who makes playing the trumpet effortless and sounding so smooth and perfect. Would be delighted to hear her live!!!
the way she sounded through the whole performance is amazing, while playing she has a wide range of notes and she can hit the accent and staccato really well they way she would cut off the notes too was done really well.

Y yo tampoco porque estoy en género mecánico del ejército lo que aprendiste reparar el equipo y que nadie muriera más nada no te puedo decir otra palabra porque no sé de música tampoco Leandro
Éternel grandiose fabuleux cette musique qui nous fait rêver qui vous emporte sur une autre terre en cette époque que l on vie qui est si triste merci Alison Balsom merci you tube pour cette musique .
Oui elle a un immense talent elle remplacera notre grand Maurice André bientôt. Hyper douée surtout sur les concertos de Hummel tartini Jolivet haydn et encore bien d'autres !!❤❤🎺🎺🎺
A la final trompeta, asi será la vení de Jesús, maravilloso sonido y interpretación de esta preciosa mujer. Solo imagínense como sonaran las de Jesús en su segunda venida. 🇨🇷🌹❤️
Alison's got everything: talent, outstanding sound, impeccable style, great looks, and something very few virtuosi ever display: charisma. The world is at her feet!
Beautiful playing, staging, and accompaniment! How nice to hear her range of dynamics and control of staccato passages. Her performance is superb, and I really enjoyed her stage presence as well.
My greatest respect and admiration for this beautiful young lady. I used to be a Trumpet player, Corenet too. takes a lot of strength and stamina to play a wind instrument like the trumpet. And much more with so much proficiency. I lost my front teeth in an accident, so now I can't play. No loss though. I never was all that good at it.
This is one of my favorites. She plays great and the camera work makes this an enjoyable video to watch. I have watched it more times that I can count. She does a great job on the Haydn Trumpet Concerto too. Fantastic Trumpeter and love all her work.
C'est la meilleure trompettiste que j'ai jamais entendue ! Les notes sont claires et précises. J'ai plusieurs CD d'Elle et ils en valent la peine. Je l'adore !
She is amazing! Im the only female trumpet or brass player in my entire orchestra and this is very inspiring to all the female brass players out there!
after trying to learn how to do the buzzing sound with your lips when playing the trumpet i went here and boy am i impressed. she plays and sounds so clean!! i just sound like a dirt bike
My middle school band director was close friends with Winston Marsalis and ever since I got to play a solo with him in jazz band he has been my favorite trumpeter
ALISON BALSON UMA DEUSA INSTRUMENTISTA RARA QUE SOMENTE DE 50 EM 50 ANOS NASE ALGUEM COM ESTE TALENTO, FOI ADQUIRIDO ? NADA, NADA DISSO ISTO É QUESTÃO DE INDIVIDUALIDADE IDENTIDADE E INDIVIDUALISMO ESTE É O ESTILO GENETICAMENTE PRÓRPRIO AMO VOCÊ GAROTA DE FORMA SAGRADA. PARABENS
Such delicacy of tone, Moves through the score like a ballet dancer. You can see clearly that like any great soloist she challanges everyone in the orchestra to be better.
Heeeeelllllll nawwww she doesn't even Crack top 25 way to unrefined she would definitely win an audition for an orchestra but this is nowhere near soloist level
_First time I have ever heard of her! Very very different in sound. The only thing I can guess is the thickness and texture of male lips vs. female lips! GOD bless Alison, a real joy to listen to! Watch out Gabriel!_ 😄
Recently, I often listen to music performed by Alison, the high artistry and the joy that emanates from the artist gives me great pleasure, thank you very much and I wish you many successes on the stage of the whole world
Alison is without doubt the most talented trumpet virtuoso to emerge in a very long time. Her ability to 'feel' the music sets her apart from 'mere musicians.' Add in that she is a truly delightful young woman who always has time for her fans, and you have perfection.
She is absolutely up there, but definitely not the best. Allen Vizzutti, Maurice Andrè, Wynton Marsalis, ect. are all pretty far ahead of her technically and musically speaking. But that doesn't diminish her playing at all. She's fantastic.
+Q5RPE To be fair to Nicholas Brister, these things are very subjective. Marsalis is outstanding in his field as was the late Maynard Ferguson. What makes Alison stand out (in my opinion) is her transcription and interpretation of pieces that were not written for the trumpet. Add in the fact that her playing demonstrates that she is living and emotionally engaging with the music the is playing.
Being an ex trumpet player I listen to all different trumpet players and have to see that this is the best performance of the Hummel concerto that I have ever heard. She has completely mastered the staccato, double and triple tongue techniques that I could only dream I could do. What ever accolades she may receive she deserves more. Excellent performance and I will seek out any other performances she has made available. Made my day to come across this.
Interesting comments. To clear things up: This is the 3rd Movement of JN Hummel's Trumpet Concerto (not Haydn). It is written in the key of Eb, and while it can be played on a C or Bb trumpet (and often is), it is common and standard practice to play it on an Eb trumpet. Enjoy! (Some folks also need to learn to not be so critical and enjoy a brilliant performance, no matter who it is behind the horn. You are allowed to enjoy more than one trumpeter!)
Trumpetz81 Yes, it was, but surprisingly few people seem to have recorded it in E! At least, when I made a cursory search on Spotify, most players seem to have favored the transposition to Eb. So I think mr Frye can be forgiven for misspeaking on such a minor point. He makes a few excellent points! =)
Thank you for the wonderful trumpet music. I also played the trumpet in a brass band when I was in high school. Japanese music also has fun music. Let's all enjoy music.
Beauty and brains with a smile that can melt your heart. Some people get all the good things in life while the rest of us struggle every hour of everyday. She's simply wonderful.
Thanks so much, and I'm grateful for people like you that see what talent really is and not what television and corporations brainwash us into thinking.
I'm a decorated soldier and cop from a family where I grew up with alcoholic parents so please......I realize you think your so smart and know everything without having even a fraction of the facts, but there's a HUGE difference between struggling to play a musical instrument and struggling to JUST SURVIVE and STAY ALIVE!!! My guess is you'd know nothing about either. Sorry no one can even comment in this society without having to endure snotty remarks from mean spirited angry people like you. I'll do better the next time and word it like YOU WANT SO YOU'LL BE HAPPIER. Sorry we fail you so often in our humble comments.
bravo , à vous , vous me donner envie de reprendre ma trompette arrêté à l époque pour cause maladie . vous avez un nouveau fane ,,, super bonne année à une magnifique trompettiste .
Qué bueno ver a una hermosa dama ejecutando un instrumento que por lo general lo tocan varones Ademá de la excelencia y belleza, muchas gracias por compartir, un saludo desde Chile, bendiciones
