JS played Hummel's Trumpet Concerto in E Flat about 6.30 this morning. Did anyone catch the name of the performer? The new look playlists don't seem to have that information any more Angry

'twas Odin Hagen skipping delicately through all that passagework, with the Norwegian Radio Symphony Orch - and very deftly handled, I thought Smiley

Ah, thanks for that Reiner. I must try and track it down. My brain is usually in a dense fog at that time but that piece demanded that attention be paid.

Certainly sounded it to me, TF.   A keyed trumpet has a peculiarly kaleidoscopic tonal quality due to the construction of the instrument - some notes (where few keys are open) much brighter than others.  Hagen was playing the modern valved instrument, I'd say.
