Customer Reviews
Average Rating: Rating: - vintage Maurice Andre: absolutely top notch The first person's review said it all; absolutely top notch. There's none better than Maurice Andre for baroque trumpet anywhere. For other great CDs later in Andre's career (closer to his peak and he's only getting warmed up now well into his sixties), look for legendary performances of Maurice Andre and the Academy of St. Martin's in the Fields (also Berlin Philharmonic but there are many others). Rating: - Great Interpretations by the Master This is a collection of some of the greatest recorded performances of the works included. The recording quality, alas, is very uneven, and some of the items are decidedly rough as recordings. But as performances, ahhh! Several of the pieces (the exquisite Handel concerto, for example) were actually written for oboe, but Andre makes them sound as if they were not only conceived for the trumpet, but as if they were never meant for anything else. The orchestral accompaniments are excellent -- oddly, especially in some of the older, rougher items. And crowning the whole recording is a benchmark version of Haydn's greatest concerto, the wonderful Trumpet Concerto. The slow movement is gently lyrical and dreamy -- which are not easy attributes to draw from a trumpet! -- and the famous and delightful finale is brilliant and big-hearted and joyous. At this budget price the disc makes a remarkable bargain!
