Hindemith, Janáček, Vačkář – Music for Brass, Piano and Percussion (third party links)
Following after John Wallace’s records of Italian baroque trumpet music, this disc shows John to be surely the most versatile of all British trumpet players, equally at home in contemporary and classical repertoire.
The outstanding gem in this collection is the Concert by Dalibor Vačkář, a little-known Czech composer. It is a brilliant, energetic piece scored for an unusual combination of trumpet, keyboards and percussion. Virtuoso interaction between all the soloists generates and essential driving force which contrasts with plangent tonal colours from the trumpet floating over a backcloth of vibraphone and piano.
Whist more conventional, the Hindemith and Janáček explore the full potential of the piano – brass combination, providing added variation and excitement to the brass ensemble medium.
