Amid the 20th-century revival of period instruments, the natural trumpet was conceived to overcome the technical challenges of playing on natural brass instruments; it lacks finger holes for intonation correction, His masterful command of the unvented natural trumpet—which can only be played using authentic pre-18th-century techniques—has made him a highly sought-after artist by leading early music ensembles worldwide, including La Petite Bande, Le Poème Harmonique, and the Bach Collegium Japan! Carving out time from his hectic schedule, he has released an album with his own ensemble, Ensemble Éolus, featuring a collection of chamber works by Telemann—who enjoyed unparalleled popularity in Germany during the same era as Bach and Handel—all performed in their unique instrumental configurations— —Mastering not only open-bore trumpets but also natural horns and hunting horns, the album reveals the true nature of these authentic Baroque-era outdoor wind pieces, which Telemann composed to cater to the German nobility’s passion for hunting and their fondness for military music (and which were likely performed outdoors, sometimes without a basso continuo). The open, airy sound unique to natural instruments does not, however, translate into compelling music simply by playing them wildly… Accompanied by detailed commentary (with Japanese translations for the domestic edition), this new recording—which reveals how the exquisite soundscape of the master Telemann, who delighted monarchs, would have sounded “just as it was back then”—combined with the ingenuity of a rarely heard selection of pieces—is a must-listen not only for early music enthusiasts but also for fans of wind ensemble music.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53595673198881,"sku":"4589538729974","price":2970.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538729974.jpg?v=1790482230","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538729974","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
