CKD310


• “Trumpet Masque” sees renowned trumpeter Jonathan Freeman-Attwood explore his passion for expanding the instrument's limited chamber repertoire by imaginatively arranging Baroque works previously scored for alternative forces.

• In “Trumpet Masque”, Jonathan Freeman-Attwood and Daniel-Ben Pienaar take a radical new look at the 17th century with a compelling vision of repertoire historically far-removed from the traditional contexts of both trumpet and piano.

• Through wonderfully vibrant programming and arrangements, this invigorating and warm-hearted chamber duo present music from Dowland to Purcell in an energetic, innovative and 21st century fashion.

• The aim of this recording is to open our ears to a period of unequalled variety, colour, regional diversity and expressive freedom: the Venetian world of Gabrieli, the great pre-Bach North German lineage of Buxtehude, Jacobean dances and songs and the great G major sonata from Muffat's 'Armonico Tributo' with its virtuoso and valedictory passacaglia, which appropriately ends the disc.

• Jonathan Freeman-Attwood, the newly-appointed principal at the Royal Academy of Music, London, is “a multi-talented trumpeter, academic and Renaissance Man” (BBC Music Magazine).

• Jonathan Freeman-Attwood's career also extends to recording producer for many independent labels.   Several of his productions have won major awards, including five Gramophone Awards.

• South African born Daniel-Ben Pienaar is an award-winning pianist whose live performances and recordings have won him widespread acclaim: “a kaleidoscope of colours and textures” (International Piano).

• “Trumpet Masque” provides a unique 21st century perspective on re-discovered chamber music of the Baroque period expertly re-worked for trumpet and piano.
    “Freeman-Attwood's playing is striking for the beauty of his lyrical phrasing and his richness of colour.” Gramophone
