Oh wow, i play baroque (I'm a cellist) and I swear I thought I'd hate this vid, but it's amazing! You guysare good, and this particular concerto really sounded good for brass.
doodle tonguing is the trick.. When I studied trumpet in Germany, and did baroque pieces, my teacher use to ask me to doodle tongue the 16th note runs.
You know, you're an excellent trumpet player, but you're not playing this like baroque. You need to think not only of the style, but also of its origins as a string/harpsichord piece. Altogether the trumpet playing is good, but the style leaves me wanting. There is music on the trumpet that is not bombastic. =P
vivaldi wrote it, i think it was a string piece, i never heard that original version. then bach later did an arrangement of it for harpsichord, adding his more ornamental style. i however heard the german brass' version first, which is an arrangement of bach's version. i always wanted to play it but couldn't find the music anywhere so i got many of the ideas by listening to their cd and arranged it myself to fit a smaller ensemble. thanks for listening, i am glad you like it!
Great work. I was not familiar with this piece until i stumbled on your videos here, and i like it very much. The part that i would like clarify is just the history. I checked google, and couldnt find anything. But who was the composer of this? Did bach and vivaldi really get together to write this? This may seem like a dumb question to some, even if it is, i would like to clear that up. Thanks!
This is what i don't like about american brass playing, everything is perfect but so heavy! that's what i love about european brass playing, everything flows an you don't feel like there's a hughe elephant chasing you.
i actually totally agree... i have been trying to get that sound only recently and am finding it very difficult! i also love the german articulation which even in quick passages seems to be light and almost have no articulation at all, but still has clarity.
Very inspiring piece, I hope you'll post more, excellent job!

Furchtbar.....ganz schlimm, da ist überhaupt keine Musikalität zu spüren. Nur gnadenlos durchgepeitscht.....da bekommt man Migräne !!!
Man höre sich GERMAN BRASS mit Matthias Höfs an der Piccolo an !!!
