Adolph Herseth @ 100: Pictures at an Exhibition
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มิ.ย. 2024
- During the tenure of Adolph “Bud” Herseth (1921-2013) as its principal trumpet, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra commercially recorded Maurice Ravel’s orchestration of Modest Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition on seven occasions between 1951 and 1990.
This video, part of the CSO's tribute to the Herseth centennial, features the first tracks from each of those seven recordings, with Herseth performing the work’s opening promenade fanfare. - เพลง

Knew him, the world is a better place that he was here.
That 50’s and 60’s brass section, led by Herseth, might have been the best Brass section that ever existed in the history of American orchestras.
I second that opinion! Certainly their body of work supports this opinion and that’s a fact! 😉
American *and non American orchestras ;)
I would even say the 50’s into the 80’s. There are so many recordings which are iconic and have served as inspiration to so many brass players like myself. His impact to orchestral trumpet playing is huge and I’m lucky to be a 2nd generation “Chicago School” student
@@edroth555 Indeed his Legacy and Gifts are extensive and far beyond what any possible words could ever could describe. Anyone in that musical “lineage” is greatly blessed to have been part of his influence and inspiration.
It absolutely was the best brass section.
As a trumpet player it's insane to think how long he was at the pinnacle of the art and profession of classical trumpet. He left a lasting impact on an untold number of musicians and is still the gold standard for trumpet players on many (if not all) excerpts.
What a legend.
Bud Herseth and Arnold Jacobs made such a great combo!
I'll never forget you, Bud. What an experience studying with you. I'm blessed.
Bud and the Band. His impact on the art of playing the trumpet is incalculable.
Thanks, CSO! In my opinion, the Pictures at Orchestra Hall in the 1957 RCA recording is the gold standard; Reiner's orchestra played it so well that the newer CSO interpretations are redundant at best. Bud wasn't messing around with this theme - you know how his notes start, and how they stop, no matter if it's 1950 or 1990. In the Reiner recording, the whole orchestra follows his style to a T and the result is glorious.
This art lover is not meandering or simply wandering through the exhibition. He walks with purpose, trying to get the best view of the pictures. Stepping forward to see details better, moving to the right and then back. He’s seen them before and knows his favorites.
Ahh. Those pictures! Look at them in your mind. They were indeed great and wonderful while we still had them................
I remember him from church, he played at United Lutheran in Oak Park, IL
How I wish more modern musicians were like Bud. Humble. Hard working. Dedicated. There was never a sense of bloated pride when you heard Bud speak. Everyone knew he was one of, if not, the best in the business. He never acted like that. I was in awe of him and still am to this day.
I don't disagree with what you wrote. However, this is my exact recollection of a conversation I had with Mr. Herseth at a lesson in his Oak Park basement, in 1962 or 1963: Me: "Armando Ghitalla has said that he wants to be considered the greatest trumpet player alive, according to a student of his. I think that is rather silly of him." Herseth: "I don't know. I have said the same thing myself." Me: "Yes, but you actually are the greatest." Herseth did not disagree, and we want on to another topic.
Yes,yes,yes! Bud was very approachable and friendly, I knew him from my time hanging out at Schilke's on south Wabash. He taught lessons and would chat with the highschool kid who always seemed to be hanging out trying mouthpieces.
Well, Bud wasn’t really one of those guys - “Ah shucks, I ain’t THAT good.” Music is very competitive like in athletics and you have to be honest with yourself first because others might not be.
I like that old quote of his that goes something like - I lead the orchestra from the back.
They are very beautiful pictures! Please look at them and think about them before they disappear forever!
What a great resource for trumpet players. I'd love a similar compilation for Mahler 5.
This is an amazing document. Mr. Herseth legacy is one of a kind.
The GOAT
The consistency of his playing over those forty years is inspiring. Thank you Bud!
Love the 1976 the most: noble, thoughtful, powerful without being aggressive.
Incredible carrer! Awesome story teller!
Wow the CSO needs to keep this up
I heard him playing Mahler 6th with Pierre Boulez conducting in 1993… Amazing!
Modest and Maurice would have loved his playing. I know we all do.
Anyone notice how much better the RCA Victor recordings sound than the others?
Yeah I was shocked by the quality of that 1957 recording.
I am surprised that I prefer the Ozawa version. I did not even know it existed until today.
I agree.
Wow! That Ozawa recording is superb- never heard it before!
That album cover...
Brass teachers could save a lot of time by just having their students emulate the wonderful continuous air flow on these examples.
Amazing! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Bud Herseth. Born and raised in Bertha, MN (pop 552) attended Luther College, Decorah, IA...and the rest is history.
Just great ❤
これは良い動画や……
Reiner and Ozawa. No question.
やっぱショルティだな✋
Same trumpet, different directors. Fascinating. I prefer Seiji Ozawa and George Solti’s interpretations. The first, lead by Rafael Kubelik, is far too deliberate and mechanical. Ozawa’s direction is much more alive as is Solti’s.
Glorious… but too fast
