While searching through some of the better videos on Youtube, I can across an interesting idea. How would several trumpet ensembles compare when performing the same number and I selected Mr. Terry Everson’s composition “Idea Number Twenty-Four” for Trumpets as our test piece for it is extremely challenging and tests the ability of only the better players.
Our first recording was a studio recording done by the composer and his friends. This is our standard for this recording should and does give you the best possible performance.
Our next example is a live performance done by the Boston Trumpet Ensemble.
The next performance is by Jonathon Gregory and his NTC ensemble
University of Oklahoma trumpet ensemble
Finally we have a group from the University of North Texas Trumpet Ensemble
If you have a preference, let me know what you think.
