Haydn Trumpet Concerto in Eb, recorded November 4th 2021, Auditorio de Galicia, Santiago de Compostela. Real Filharmonía de Galicia, Marc Leroy-Calatayud
Esteban has a vibrance and tonal purity on the trumpet that is so rare, a step above the vibrance I hear from anyone else. There are some Urbie Green recordings where you also hear his sound transcend to this absolute purity. Amazing musician and player, beginning his own legacy following Herseth, set his own new course. Congratulations Esteban!
Very touched by your playing on this Esteban. You brought freshness of phrase and line along with tribute to those who have recorded this before you. Wink to Wynton in the cadenza :) Thank you.
