- One of the greatest trumpet players ever was seldom seen standing in front of the orchestra as soloist. But here "Bud" offered his talents for the live audience and radio audience. I don't have a date for this broadcast, but a listener said he was there, and that it was June of 1990. Erich Leinsdorf is the conductor for this performance.
I played this concert with Bud. At the last performance, the then new music Director, Daniel Barenboim was sitting in a box listening to the performance. At the following Tuesday’s rehearsal for a that next weeks program. Danny told the orchestra “I heard a miracle last night, Bud Herseth playing the Hummel concerto and he did a fantastic job” to which Bud replied, “Well, the Trumpet isn’t as EASY as the piano” (Barenboim’s instrument) naturally, that broke the orchestra up. lol
That is amazing, you’re a cello player in the CSO? Sounds like a dream
I was in the audience.
Can’t say I adore the piece. But never in my life have I had the chance to hear trumpet playing this cultivated. Utterly, utterly brilliant, in every possible aspect. What a treasure the people of Chicago had in Bud for all those years!
The best symphonic trumpeter to ever do it. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Herseth in circa 1980. He was as kind as he was talented.
So,Mr. Herseth was 69 years of age for this recording?
So warm a sound from a legend.
Thanks for this
Oh gosh, I remember listening to this while lying on my bed in my college townhouse. 1983?

Greatest classical trumpeter of our time.
The best so far
Thanks so much for this!!! I had never heard Bud play this!!
Those articulations! Good lawd! That sound! 🎉
What a marvel! Outstanding performance, Herseth's phrasing, extension, technique, are simply great. Third movement a masterpiece. Thank you for posting!
... virtuose Kraft, Eleganz und dennoch Sensibilität: Maestro Adolph Herseth, der unübertroffene Trompeter! Vgl. auch die Postings mit Bach und Telemann.
Complete command! Best live I've heard.

Bud's storytelling, tone of voice, accent, and inflection have a certain Studs Terkel flair.
Brilliant performance!
The date of this performance would have been in December. Eric Leinsdorf always gets conducted 3 to 4 weeks in December. Because I played all of them.
Thanks! I updated the info in the title.
Not the same now
When was this broadcast?

I still remember seeing Mr. Daval..Charley's Daval ( ex boston sym. player) father...in the grocery store one day and he was a great trumpet player himself...he said all the trumpet players and students thought that Herseth was so great..but that he personally, though Ghitalla was the better player
Outstanding performance, offcourse !!
But, Im sorry to say, nowadays there are children, also girls from 10 years old, most of them from Asia, that can play this piece also very well.
Nobody can deny this.
Not THIS well.....
@@davidjbourne61
These children ? No. But listen to James Shepherds version on cornet. He made this difficult piece even a lot more difficult..
No. They can't. They can play the notes, but the music sounds dead.
Music sounds dead? Maybe, but take in consideration that' these kids are sometimes only 10 or even younger.
@@willemoosterom2438 I definitely DO consider that. That's why, knowing that they have nowhere near the musicianship of somebody like Herseth, that I had to refute your comment that seems to be an attempt imply a parity in performance and, furthermore, attempt to diminish the accomplishments of Herseth.
Thanks for posting!
