I gotta say, I'm insanely impressed by the seamless transition of a melody from one player to another, 0 difference in tone, pitch, clarity, anything. It sounds like 1 trumpet 7 times
GORGEOUS WORK! Ugh it's *so* good, just one brilliant motif to the next in river-flowing motion, with one of the finest brass ensembles I have ever heard in my life.
Thoroughly enjoyed this composition. Writing whilst being limited by ranges of this instrument, (I don't play the trumpet) the composer creates a mosaic of sound and richness of intonation that works so well. Brilliant.
thank you for posting a amazing recording of this. ive tried to find a good recording for about 2 years now and this is the first time ive found one (when ive looked that is).
@@jaegertiger384 I do know they exist, but I do not have a score. I cannot tell if that's a really good low range trumpet player or a bass trumpet. It's sounds like it could be either of them, but I'm not trumpet expert. I'm a low brass guy. Feel free to clarify if you want.
@@wyattwahlgren8883 There IS a Bass Trumpet in this recording... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-X-HIPgGXwjA.html .... If you go to the video, the Bass Trumpet is on the 2nd line, right-hand side. I did not scrutinize closely enough to see whether there is a 2nd Bass Trumpet... and alas, I have never seen the score. It would clearly identify the voicing of all the 9 trumpets you see at SMU. By virtue of the title of the piece, SMU has 2 more trumpets than the 7 scored in the original work.
@@Jaegertiger I looked through the recording and didn't see a bass trumpet. I believe that this is just scored for 7 Bb Soprano Trumpets. SMU likely just doubled two of the parts
