Prof. Markus Würsch
The Swiss trumpet virtuoso Markus Würsch was born in 1955 in Emmetten, Nidwalden in the spectacularly scenic region of lake Lucerne. He studied trumpet and brass ensemble conducting at the Conservatoire in Zurich and Lucerne where he received his degree with honours. He won the coveted Migros competition, and subsequently received a grant which enabled him to spend a year at the Conservatoire Nationale Supérieur in Paris. He also spent time studying with Charles Geyer at the Eastman School of Music (Rochester NY), with Vincent Cichowicz at Northwestern University of Chicago, and with Adolphe Herseth (principal trumpet of Chicago Symphony Orchestra). In 1981 Markus won the audition for principal trumpet with the Tonhalle Orchestra, Zurich, holding this prestigious post for fourteen years. In 1995, he spent a year studying at the Royal Academy of Music and the Royal College of Music, London. There he studied under Michael Laird and Crispian-Steele Perkins (Baroque-Trumpet), Jeremy West (Cornetto) and Phillip Jones (Ensemble Direction). He has performed as soloist at the Lucerne International Festival and with the Tonhalle Orchestra.
With the support of the Swiss National Fund and the Bern University of the Arts, Markus conducted extensive research and subsequently developed a reconstruction of a 19th century keyed trumpet, in collaboration with the instrument maker Konrad Burri. The original instrument, the focus of the research, was found in the private collection of Karl Burri, Zimmerwald, near Bern. With this reconstructed instrument, Markus went on to perform and produce a CD recording of the trumpet concertos of Joseph Haydn and Nepumuk Hummel in June 2013.
For some years now, he performs almost exclusively on historical instruments. He frequently appears with the ensembles “La Cetra” and I Barocchisti (RSI, Italian Swiss Radio) and continues to interpret the Haydn and Hummel trumpet concertos as soloist on the keyed trumpet.
Markus Würsch is professor of Modern, Natural and Romantic trumpet at Bern University of the Arts, and at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts.

Alessandro Scarlatti
1660-1725
Alessandro Scarlatti was born in Palermo then part of the Kingdom of Sicily. He is considered the founder of the Neapolitan school of opera. He was the father of two other composers, Domenico Scarlatti and Pietro Filippo Scarlatti. He is generally said to have been a pupil of Giacomo Carissimi in Rome, and there is reason to suppose that he had some connection with northern Italy, since his early works show the influence of Stradella and Legrenzi. The production at Rome of his opera Gli Equivoci nell sembiante (1679) gained him the protection of Queen Christina of Sweden (who at the time was living in Rome), and he became her maestro di cappella. In February 1684 he became maestro di cappella to the viceroy of Naples through the influence of his sister, an opera singer, who was the mistress of an influential Neapolitan noble. Here he produced a long series of operas, remarkable chiefly for their fluency and expressiveness, as well as other music for state occasions.
I first heard Mr. Würsch some years ago playing the trumpet on "Rompe sprezza" performing with Wolfgang Sieber (pipe organ) and great soprano Regula Mühlemann. Exquisite performances, both of them.
Incredible music coming from a fantastic piece of plumbing.
I'm going to be on the look out for more videos of Markus Wuersch!
An absolute master of the trumpets.
Stupenda la musica eccellente l'esecuzione
Un moment de musique d'une grande noblesse. De grands interprètes, un vrai plaisir.
Wunderbar!
Diese Darbietung ist nicht trockenen Auges zu überstehen.
Danke für dieses Video.
Awesome! Mr. Wuersch is very famous and respected in Switzerland. He's the trumpet professor in Bern and Lucern. Great musician!
Beautiful!
Great sound and great interpretation ! I'm thrilled by the performance. Absolutely perfection ! Magnificent music and Magnificent Artist !
Bravo!
ottima tecnica e bel suono! super!
Ein ganz grosser Meister!
Superb performance by both men.
You are right. It's by Alessandro Scarlatti. Thank You!
... and there are always those who
want to be right about something ...
I often wonder?
Do they really hear the beauty of the music?
The beauty of the performance?
Anyway - who cares.
I am just glad, that I do!
excellent encore une fois. Très beau son, justesse impeccable. Touché léger et rebondi. Super!
Merci ça fait plaisir !! :)
excelente
Just fantastic!
Thank to both and Bravissimo!
AMAZING... GREATFULL
Esto lo toque en un examen hace mucho tiempo Gracias , excelente interpretación.
Восхитительное звучание:)))))
Mein Gott!! Ich habe schon Probleme mit dem Ding, wenn es Ventile hat. Und der spielt das, als ob das ein angeborenes Teil von ihm wäre. Grenzenlose Bewunderung!!!
und dazu noch die Klappen-Trompete, wie dieser Musiker das alles beherrscht!
Sorry, it is by Alessandro Scarlatti. I would'n change the video and make a new page when we recognized the mistake.
Tudo de bom. !!!
Persons.. it a a trumpet without valves== a natural trumpet.
Thank you.♦
Fantastic. For a real treat, add the characters &fmt=18 to the end of the URL and hit relaod. Living stereo!
Niklas Eklund, John Foster!!! And now Markus Würsch!!
Lovely combination of trumpet and organ by a great Neapolitan who is too little played.
Ed Tarr starts now more and more playing without holes! He is motivated by Jean-Francois Madeuf his successor at the Schola Cantorum.
If you compare the sounds of a natural (without holes) and a baroque (holes) trumpet one dirrectly after the other, you will find out, that the sounddifference is like the one between a modern b-flat and a piccolo!
Even if you use the same original big baroque mouthpiece.
Sure it's by Alessandro and composed in Rome the year 1705.
I would be affraid @ my age to try & play a trumpet think I would pass out & would be last of me🎺
@igordotrompete : Natural trumpet (or baroque trumpet)
GRAN OBRA DE SCARLATTI, DOMENICO
This work isn't by Domenico Scarlatti. It's by his father Alessandro!
What organ is that? Perhaps a Silbermann or maybe a Walcker?
@vegandaddy Mister Wursch is not "piccolo trumpeter" but a trumpeter
May I say I really like your CrazyCello site. I still disagree with your comments on Mr Wuersch's fine playing. I would be surprised if he doesn't use an appropriate mouthpiece for the natural trumpet rather than a modern one. Also It is very likely that the trumpet itself is made by appropriate methods. Anyway, the main point is that this is a fine video!
Nel video compare "Domenico Scarlatti". errore!!!
gia!
Domenico o Alessandro?
First the recording is good! But I have to say that "TheCrazyCello" is right, the mouthpiece is not a real historical one. From the shape it seams to be one of the Egger ST series. Well the outside of the instrument looks like a baroque mouthpiece, but the inside of this series is a wonderful modern thing. Well it is a little bit modified so that modern players can switch more easy to "BAROQUE" trumpets. Natural means without holes!
That Trumpet is this?
350 años de nacido en 2010.(1660)
350 años de nacido(1660)
This comment is absolute nonsense! Mr Wuersch is using a trumpet with tone-holes to correct the pitch, as do almost all contemporary natural trumpet players when performing - even Ed Tarr! These holes do not make the instrument more strident in the upper register. Beautiful playing - though, to be picky, he does omit a couple of low notes.
Somebody has to find a problem, make it better, poor boy.
Alessandro who? Oh, did you mean the father of Domenico Scarlatti? He asked jokingly.
The greatest Love is God's Love, revealed in giving His Begotten SON, to live, suffer and die, as a man of sorows, with a sinless life. Jesus came to reveal and vindicate, God´s Character and save me and you.
There was a man named Simon, who, once, invited Jesus for a dinner, at his house on Betânia. This man, wanted, just to give a fair retribution, for being healed from leprosy by Jesus.
Without being invited, there came a prostitute women! Simon thought to himself, that if Jesus were a prophet, he certainly, woul know the kind of a women she was!
Jesus accepted the women's attention, and kind behavour, on pouring an expensive alabaster ointment into Jesus's head and feet, and drying them up, with her hair. Then, the disciples, including Judas, condemned her, saying:- « this ointment shoud be sold and the money given to the poor ». Jesus answers them:- « why are you being harsh to her? She is doing a good thing, preparing me for my burial!
Judas went out from there, to betray Jesus. Simon kept a strong impression from the Holy Spirit, Who inspired Jesus to give such a deep meaning, to the women's spontaneous love expression. He also heard an Eternal Prophétic declaration, from The Divine Master: - « verily I say unto you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in whole world, that this women hath done, be told for a memorial of her.» Faith, love and acts of spontaneous kindness, go alongside with true testimony, revealing The True disciples, and the Truth wich Jesus is. Ámin!
