The great virtuoso trumpeter John Wallace and Principal of the Royal
Scottish Academy of Music and Drama directs the principal brass players
of the Philharmonia Orchestra together with some of Scotland’s finest
young talent in a programme that encompasses the pageantry and
splendour of brass, culminating in Elgar Howarth’s renowned
transcription of Mussorgsky’s towering masterpiece. The young German
trumpeter Paul Hübner won the Marek Stachowski Award for his
interpretation of Hanna Kulenty’s Brass No. I for Double Bell Trumpet –
a rare chance to hear this dazzling work for a unique and extraordinary
instrument.
