Hi All,

I have not posted this link for several years.

Click on the link at the right if necessary but turn your speakers down.

Happy Holidays,

HRL

Once again it is that time of year! Feel free to adjust the volume as your enjoyment may vary.

Thanks, Hank! Hilarious! I think we've all met one of these performers at some time or another...if not literally, then in spirit.

I hate to admit it...but I was laughing so hard the first time that I had to re-listen to it in order to appreciate the full beauty of performance.

Merry Christmas!
Fuzzy

Fuzzy and GBK,

It is a majestic rendering that never gets old! And the strings were ever so lush.

If I were a trumpet player, I would respond with the following counter examples:

Two weeks ago, Wynton Marsalis celebrating the Holidays with his little daughter Oni (who can really sing):

Maynard actually playing the high notes on The First Noel, The Christmas Song-- listen to the descending gliss at 4:42-4:47--and the wild Jingle Bells finale:

Norwegian virtuoso Ole Antonsen nailing the part on the Gloria:

And, finally, back to Wynton--this time performing Handel with Kathleen Battle:

Happy Holidays, even with the trumpets!
