Popular Post Disco Stu 15,495 Posted March 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2020 I just discovered that a new recording of the Williams Trumpet Concerto was released last month, Februrary 2020, recorded with just trumpet and piano. The trumpet player for the recording is Jesse Cook with Edward Neeman playing the whole orchestra on piano For some reason, movements 1 and 2 are combined into a single track while the last movement gets its own. The concerto is tracks 4 and 5 on the album https://open.spotify.com/album/1AvFWxlBQmKZTpLUuJe0v0 https://www.prestomusic.com/classical/products/8765760--imagined-conversations-new-music-for-trumpet-and-piano-with-percussion Miguel Andrade, SteveMc, Will and 5 others 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ricsim88 244 Posted March 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2020 Interesting. Name doesn’t ring a bell. The reason for the 1st and 2nd movement being 1 track, is that in this unrevised version, the 2 are connected without a break. Williams revised the ending of the first movement specifically for the Tom Hooten recording. SteveMc, Disco Stu, _deleted_ and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,343 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 So is this the published piano-trumpet reduction or a fanmade arrangement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,495 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 THREE recordings for this now, while others have none, or abysmal ones (like the clarinet concerto). A scandal! In all seriousness, thanks for the heads-up. I'll check it out on streaming platforms, but I think I'm all set for this piece, having both the Sandoval and Hooten albums (former on CD, latter as digital files).

He then incorporated into the full concerto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Miguel Andrade 1,263 Posted March 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2020 For CD lovers like myself, should be pointed out that this label usually releases this physically some time after the digital release. thx99, Disco Stu and _deleted_ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveMc 2,674 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 A bit harsh the tone on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new ending was originally written for Tom to perform with the Marine Band in 2016, here: From the program note of that concert: Quote The original ending to the first movement of the concerto subsides and quietly segues into the second movement. Mr. Williams has composed a new coda for the first movement specifically for this concert by Mr. Hooten and the U.S. Marine Band. Today’s performance represents the world première of this new music, which will stand as an alternative ending for future performances of the first movement alone. ricsim88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
