After hearing Maurice Andre live twice in Toledo, Ohio, I was stunned to the point of tears! I had never heard then, or now, any player on trumpets play as Andre' played! He was & is the FINEST artist on trumpets the world has ever seen! He influenced millions of players, including ME! Vive Andre'!
I've heard this concerto played by many trumpeters for over 40 years and Andre's version is still the finest rendition I've ever heard. This piece was originally composed for a D trumpet (smaller & 2 tones higher than the common Bb trumpet) but Andre played it on a Bb piccolo trumpet, 1/2 the size and a full octave (8 tones) higher than the usual horn. It's very difficult to get such a rich, full sound on a tiny trumpet, but he did it with excellence! Maurice passed away in 2012, may he r.i.p.
A baroque trumpet in D (without valves) is actually longer than modern Bb trumpet and twice as long as a modern D trumpet with valves. If period pieces in the key of D (or C) are played on a piccolo, this is usually tuned down a semitone to A, to facilitate the fingering. Bb tuning is used for pieces in Eb or F (Brandenburg Concerto No. 2)
@@Kowabrass I realize the natural trumpets they originally played this piece on were nothing at all like today's trumpets. They were also a bear to play! My guess is Maurice probably used an A leadpipe on his Selmer Paris piccolo and played it in the key of F. You can also do it on a D trumpet, and that way it's in C, but still no picnic. If you use a Bb piccolo for Brandenburg #2, you'll be playing it in the key of G.
It is a rotten shame that this is virtually the only work by Fasch that is known or played. He wrote a lot of music and all of it is of equally high quality like this Concerto.
I ponder just where the bulk of his manuscripts reside...on shelves in some library encrusted with 'dust' all these yrs? Private collections? Misplaced? A fire? Folks, I say let the Search begin! Jn
This might be one of the shortest concertos. My recently completed 11 vignettes Rasputin Rhapsody is 7 times longer, and though my great opus is very worthy it can't hold a candle to this brief concerto.
He escuchado este concierto por dos grandes. El primero fue Wynton Marsalis y el segundo Maurice André. Los dos para mi son grandes trompetistas. Ellos han sido mis padres durante mi formación.
Recorded in 1965 -- per the copyright by Erato. This makes perfect sense based upon the significant improvements in recording technology and sudden expansion of recordings that occurred during the 1960's and early 1970's. If you study the discography at the time, all of the major labels were recording as many perfomers and compositions as they possibly could. In fact, many of the recordings featured today on "Music Choice" (and other venues on cable TV, etc) eminate from this time period due to the quality, prolific nature of the recordings produced, and the cost / royalties paid to the performers -- most of whom are now deceased. In short, it was the high point of classical music and corresponding recordings in the US and Europe. Also, the recording artists at the time were "par excellence."
j'ai su jouer ce concerto bien que simple amateur mais pas aussi bien forcément car je n'ai pas fait de conservatoire néanmoins je n'étais pas mauvais et en solfège imbattable alors qu'au conservatoire de toulouse albert calveyrac m'a dit qu'il était dégouté du niveau médiocre des élèves en solfège car c'est la base

When was this?
Besser geht nicht!!!
I played this at BGSU in 1975- Michael McClary, Professor of Trumpet 🎺, Georgia Perimeter College and GSU 🎉❤😂
I am born in Zerbst. I am very grateful that Fasch wrote this beautiful music
in Zerbst my home town. 1758 he was buried secretely in Zerbst.

A feature most nice to the show the best playingset trumpet concerto

The century XVIII was the great age to the plays the greats master piece music post baroque
A slower and more expressive performance than his earlier recording with the Bachsoloisten.
The first note of the second movement sounded like a new type of woodwind.
AGREED! Michael McClary, Professor of Trumpet, ( Ret.)

None better than Andre.

@Thierry Merle cela n'est pas en accord avec la réponse précédente !
