RE: Steemit Openmic Week #55 – Haydn Trumpet Concerto
Nice job, @fred101! Let me ask, have you ever heard Wynton Marsalis' recording of the Haydn Horn Concerto? It's pretty amazing.

Definitely! I love Wynton's playing so much. If you want to hear something really awesome listen to him playing Moto Perpetuo:
That's crazy good. All in one breath too. LOL. I don't follow trumpet much (I'm more into keyboard work), but Wynton is definitely my favorite. His phrasing is absolutely smooth.
Yeah it's called circular breathing, a technique where you can breathe in while still blowing out. It's tricky to learn and is mostly only used to play long notes, so it's really spectacular to do what hesdoing there.
