Brassology "Transcendental Etude X" - Franz Liszt/arr. Chris Coletti

[@michaelfoxbrass]

At first I thought, “Uh, a Liszt Piano Etude for brass ensemble? That’s gonna be a big NOPE from me.” I. Was. Wrong. Heroic, crazy, and terrifically exciting music, Brassology! Surgically precise and balanced playing (challenging piccolo part written for yourself, Chris!), informed with an understanding of the voicings and complex and interwoven competing lines and rhythms from this mad pianist composer! BRAVO all!

What a performance. Very good arrangement. I specially love the « linking » of the sounds of the two trumpets (piccolo and Bb), so difficult but so to the point. 👏🏻

Hello Chris, very good, but I would like to ask you a question, can you please indicate to me the trumpet methods you used, I ask you, because you have a vast experience, so what methods did you use and would you recommend me? thanks, Chris

Arban - it’s what Harry James father put him on as a young boy. Also great for all brass players!
