Huw Morgan/Rebecca Wilt - Gallois-Montbrun, Hubeau, Ibert, Jolivet, Rueff, Sancan, Schmitt, Tisn�: The Art of the Modern Trumpet Vol. 2

The second volume of this series (Volume 1 is on 8.573995) visits 20th-century France, where the combination of trumpet and piano inspired music of ravishing beauty, intimacy and wit. Through the bluesy retrospection of Jean Hubeau�s Sonata, the voluptuous rhapsody of Florent Schmitt�s Suite and the avantgarde eclecticism of Antoine Tisn�s H�raldiques, this album explores the quintessentially Gallic sonorities that came to redefine the instrument�s voice for the modern era.
