An astonishing disc, with Preston and Hardenberger in excellent form. This is certainly trumpet playing of the highest order and the recording captures the bright, burnished tone of of the instrument very well indeed. The organ of Aarhus Cathedral in Denmark is a mighty beast but Preston never allows it to dominate proceedings. Perhaps the most affecting piece here is Jean-Michel Damase's Trois prieres sans paroles, played with great sensitivity and restraint.

The sound quality of this hybrid SACD is superb, a wonderful demonstration of the aural benefits of the format. The CD layer is pretty good too but the unforced clarity, space and detail of the SACD layer makes for an even more electrifying experience. Highly recommended.
