It is surprisingly easy to memorize such a technically challenging piece such as this, with repeated practice of small sections it will come quite naturally
Alison -you are the best trumpet player on the planet in my opinion. I love your musicality, phrasing, control and your sound -rich, and you make it sound so easy when it isn't
Amazing, Amazing, and Amazing!!! Bravissimo!!! What are tonguing! Alison Balsom is the world best. How to make so beautiful sound with brass instrument. Thank you.
That is what is so beautiful about music. You can appreciate Hakan Handerberg more. Both are amazing to me. Hakan seems more classically true to Arban to me. Yet, I prefer Allison for this one. I love her phrasing. Unfortunately (for me in my listening pleasure) the recording of Hakan Handerberg was done in a room with lots of echoing. As the echo dissipates, it bleeds over into the next note on the faster variation. To other's that echoing effect may be more pleasing to their ear. I do suspect that Allison's version has more post production editing as that has become more common these last few years.
