Wynton Marsalis

1988 Baroque Music For Trumpets



The greatest era for the trumpet was the eighteenth century, for then composers treated this most brilliant and triumphant of instruments with the admiration it deserved. Today the trumpet holds a fairly muted status as a member of the symphonic brass section, finding a real outlet for its talents in the world of jazz. But to hear the trumpet in all its ceremonious splendor one must go back to the era commemorated in these selections by Wynton Marsalis. (Oddly, Mr. Marsalis is as well known in the world of jazz as in the classical arena and is the first musician ever to win a major award - the recording industry’s “Grammy” - in both jazz and classical categories.)

Performances of trumpet concertos by Vivaldi and Telemann demonstrate why Wynton’s interpretations of Baroque music have become benchmarks in the classical music world. With characteristic musical insight and imagination, he even succeeds in making that tired old warhorse, the “Pachelbel Canon,” kick up its heels.
