Rush Hour Concerts | CSO Brass Quintet

[@jwhill7]

It is, perhaps, hard to imagine, for someone who has never tried it, how much of a test of endurance it is to play an hour of brass quintet music, without intermission.

[@tulkasetorome]

Not only some of the finest musicians in the world, but some of the greatest people you will ever meet. Well done, gentlemen.

[@TheMrAshley2010]

I had the good fortune of studying with James Mattern when I was in high school, and then playing his quintet with excellent musicians in college and after. I probably haven't heard this piece in over 35 years. It was great to get reacquainted with it!

Thanks for posting the times!

[@megaohmaudio5963]

I loved the Zamba Gaucha from the Suite Americana! Thanks for introducing me to this work.

[@trumpetbrain7302]

Esteban is unreal... so much respect!

[@heikowoehler7848]

Well done! 👍

[@natalya9821]

Hello. Thank you from Moscow.

[@holton345]

That sound! I love it! Bravo, gentlemen! Bravo, Northern! Love the York in the quintet setting!

[@maryjahangir2318]

I thought the Suite Americana was intriguing! Such a great blend! Thank you!

[@rapidrrobert4333]

Bud would smile.

[@Jaegertiger]

Bud IS smiling, because Estaban is playing at least one of Bud's Mt Vernon's Strads... for sure Bud's C trpt.

[@morabitobrass]

Song and Wind! Bravooooooooooooooooooo!

[@davegingrich8642]

Estaban is in a class unto himself. His delivery never disappoints. I seriously believe, he is the BEST orchestral trumpet player in the USA -- better than Chris Martin. What I like about him so much is that he is OLD SCHOOL.... no messing around and take your instrument SERIOUSLY.

[@user-rn1lb8sx2c]

I agree with your opinion. I don’t like name dropping though, don’t discredit other players

[@Onlinepersonality212]

If you seriously believe it, wow, I better take it for gospel

[@Jaegertiger]

@@Onlinepersonality212 Glad to see that you're FINALLY getting your mind right. Too bad you were "wandering in the wilderness" of confusion until you "saw the light." And as I said, Esteban never disappoints.

[@Onlinepersonality212]

@@Jaegertiger Try spelling his name correctly. Also, you’re pretty confident. What backs that up?

[@Jaegertiger]

@@Onlinepersonality212 Been playing for 60 years -- got my '65 Bach Strad when 13. Had a full scholarship to the New School of Music (Phila) when still in High School -- maintaining both at the same time. Teacher was Don McComas -- Asst Principal of Phila Orch. Have 12 Pro-grade horns. Practice an hour/day on material like Charlier 36 and 32 Etudes, Cafferelli, Foveau, Laurent, Chavanne, Gallay, Telemann and Bach transcriptions, etc.. Write my own Etudes -- receiving a comment from one of my pro-friends -- "Are you trying to kill me?".... which IS the whole point. Expect to publish them when I've generated a sufficient number. For the record, can play them myself. Attended Masterclasses conducted by both Esteban and Chris. After being exposed to them, I give the edge to Esteban for multiple reasons. And without a doubt, Esteban is EXTREMELY dialed into his craft in amazing ways -- applying a highly competent "Old School" approach (which, from my experience, has faded in the USA). So, my opinion has a sound basis to it, and was not made cavalierly. BTW... Chris did play with Don in Philly for a while in about 1998 (and onward). And his history at Chicago, Philly, Boston, and NYC tends to point to high competency. But I STILL give the edge to Esteban.

[@DianeJB75]

Who’s the person introducing the players? Sounds like a fellow Kiwi. Maybe the trombone player too?

[@brucekuehn4031]

Michael Mulcahy on trombone. You were close - born in Sydney.

[@DianeJB75]

Yes I had thought the trombone player was maybe Australian and then found he was, but the person who introduced them was surely a Kiwi?

[@marybethdietrick79]

The introducer's name is Robbie Ellis and he works for radio station WMFT. He is from New Zealand.
