I Musici, Håkan Hardenberger – Baroque Trumpet Concertos
I Musici, Håkan Hardenberger – Baroque Trumpet Concertos
A refined and elegant collection of Baroque works, this recording brings together the celebrated chamber ensemble I Musici with virtuoso trumpeter Håkan Hardenberger—one of the leading figures in modern classical trumpet performance.
Focusing on composers of the Italian Baroque, including Antonio Vivaldi, Arcangelo Corelli, and Tomaso Albinoni, the album highlights the brilliance and ceremonial character of the trumpet during the 17th and early 18th centuries.
Hardenberger’s playing is both technically precise and expressive, capturing the clarity, agility, and bright tonal colour required for Baroque repertoire, while I Musici provide a crisp, historically sensitive accompaniment.
The programme moves between lively concertos and intimate sonatas, offering a varied listening experience—from the energetic flourishes of Vivaldi to the more lyrical, reflective passages found in works by Alessandro Marcello and Giuseppe Torelli.
This is a strong addition for collectors of Baroque instrumental music, particularly those interested in historically informed performance and trumpet repertoire.
