The 16th International Tchaikovsky Competition Final with Aleksey Lobikov(trombone)Russia Conductor Arseny Shuplyakov Mariinsky theatre symphony orchestra Mariinsky Concert hall.June 2019
Holy mother of god! That is a killer and it was great! To hammer yourself for 32 minutes like that is just a super human achievement. I bet he ate 6000 calories after that.
His tone is so even in all registers and so controlled. Never harsh or brassy and with a gentle vibrato, all from memory. What an ability and talent. The orchestra is also fantastic. Thanks
My memory of playing the trombone part in the opera is quite a different one - counting for minutes at a time listening to all the woodwind playing all the tunes. This certainly makes a change!
I agree. The best recording of this concerto without a doubt that I have heard. I have listened to several recordings by different trombonists. No recording compares to this one in terms of sound and technique.
@@loganready5634 I think you misunderstood my comment. I’m saying I PREFER the smooth velvet sound of a euphonium to the bright flatulence of a trombone.
