I will not comment about his intonation, technique, skill, interpretation or any of that. What I will comment on is all the negative commentary that seems based on the fact that some people just need to find something wrong with everything. My advice? Simply sit back, close your eyes, open your ears, and enjoy this fine performance by a very talented musician. Let the music take you on a positive journey.

Cette oeuvre de Jean Baptiste Arban est magnifiquement interprètée, avec talent et virtuosité. Vous êtes cordialement remerciés l'un et l'autre, pour le grand honneur et l'hommage que vous rendez à juste titre, à ce très grand Maître de la trompette ! Merci de Toulouse fr. Robert T.
I love this performance. It's truly inspired, and this is a piece from the famous Arban cornet method that I only ever wished I could play. What a treat to hear it played so masterfully on a beautiful cornet. -J:
Hardenberger is one of the great players of our time, and it's wonderful to hear him play this on a cornet, the instrument Arban intended for it. So many great trumpet players ignore the cornet completely and this deprives us all of its softer, more lyrical character.
Funny! But you know something? I think it's true! Monsieur Arban might leal out of his grave to hug each of them! Love, love, love his Beautiful Cornet too!
Håkan really is one of the best trumpeters of the late 20th century. His technique is simply incredible, and his hair is amazing! Also a relatively handsome fellow. He was describes by The Times as "the greatest trumpeter alive and from years to come".
I am now with love with this pianist .. he has a great comm. :) still practicing .. up to first variation .. I notice few differences in places .. some tongues and some slurs .. I presume to aid the retreat into the completion of the piece .. those little bits that allow one to get to the end .. to be honest I am still putting my face on after a time off ..
Great performance. I wish there was more Hakan recordings on youtube. I like his understated way of performing. Yes I agree with everyone and anyone who prefers him to Sergei N. Sergei's a machine and some of his life performances are atrocious. Andre's the king of piccolo and tone quality in the upper ranges, but Hakan is pretty dang good too.
+Tim Cao Nope, the vid is ok. Is just that, at the beginning, the pianist is doing arpeggios so the attack of the bass happens before the upper melodic line. If you watch the pinkie on the right hand you should notice that it lines in sync with the highest melodic line.
He made a mistake at approximately 5:00 Fact: He did it on purpose to make us think he is still human on the trumpet when in fact he is still a god on the trumpet.
It's well done with very few mistakes which aren't a problem The only thing i can say if i want to critisize is that it is too equal in the interprétation at some passages, which are better for me with some pauses in the phrase
If you listen very closely, you can detect in his sound quality that he is principally a trumpet player who is using a cornet from time to time. If you compare his sound to Tine Thing Herseth, you will find the exact opposite - she is a cornet player who uses a trumpet occasionally.
Really? And how exactly is that? Both of these players have reached a point of technical mastery well beyond what it takes to flawlessly handle an Arban theme and variations. If you like Nakariakov more, that's fine. Some people are mindlessly attracted to displays of freakish technique, but nobody's playing a cello or other string transcription here. This is a piece straight out of the standard solo repertoire. So what exactly does Nakariakov do that makes his performance of Norma better?
Well, I think i might be a bit late haha but if you look just under the 3rd valve slide you si a type of screw that prevents the slide to fall off and thats a bach signature mark. I hope you have understanded me because i'm spanish.
those Arban variations leave absolutely no place for any hesitation after a mistake. If you get out of your triple-tongue rhythm you might as well start over

Absolutely
people like you are the reason I enjoy UA-cam.
I was literally just thinking this exact thing. And the negative comments never fail to come from people who can't really play.
MNO ZIL btazill btass
Damn u are definitely a real musician in this world!
I have no idea why any musician would dislike this. It moved me to tears back in college.

Poor taste.

hakan has one of the best sounds I have heard on trumpet. you can hear how alison balsom was really influenced by him!
His intonation and embouchure is just perfect it hardly moves when he changes his range!!
I love this performance. It's truly inspired, and this is a piece from the famous Arban cornet method that I only ever wished I could play. What a treat to hear it played so masterfully on a beautiful cornet. -J:
This man is a god of the trumpet ... really impressive when you consider that it is done live.
Wow! This guy is great! His phrasing and tone is great, and also that double-tonguing is INCREDIBLE!
this guy might be one of - well hes the one - classical trumpet player nowadays
Look at the MUSCLE round his chops, amazing!
+57dogsbody likely after years of tongue pushups
He's an amazing player... He makes it look really easy.

*sniff* why cant i play like that? *looks at trumpet* it must be you!
That is a cornet, not a trumpet
he makes music!!! love this interpretation!
Gracias por su interpretacion !!! magnifica.!
If he, Sergei Nakariakov, and Wyton Marsalis were all in the same room, the building would catch fire :)
I know it's been nine years since you left this comment, but 2/3 of them were at least on the same video call.

Funny! But you know something? I think it's true!
Monsieur Arban might leal out of his grave to hug each of them! Love, love, love his Beautiful Cornet too!
leap
That's why I love music !
This is just Beautiful!!
Superb!
A very moving piece of music from the opera Norma by Bellini
Beautiful.
k interpretacion magnifica es un gran maestro se entiende muy bien lo k intenta trasmitir esta musica es excelente
This is the first music i heard on my computer ---- it is brilliant ---- hilariously funny -----
I respect you, Mr. Hakan Hardenberger.
Håkan really is one of the best trumpeters of the late 20th century. His technique is simply incredible, and his hair is amazing! Also a relatively handsome fellow. He was describes by The Times as "the greatest trumpeter alive and from years to come".
in my opinion he is even the greatest trumpeter who has ever lived
Whoever disliked this, you could learned a lesson or two from Hakan, instead of hating his amazing playing, you should learned to love it.
I'm learning this piece right now and it's really fun but variation II is soooo hard! Got to get better at triple tonguing.
Remarkably good. I like the way the pianist went out of his way to wear his dress windbreaker.
Magic...
Very esquisite channel!!!Congratulations from Brasil.
Bravo!
maestro!
Hermoso!
Thinking about the fact that he doesnt use circular breathing, he has extremely long breath.
It's brilliant Bravo
I am now with love with this pianist .. he has a great comm. :) still practicing .. up to first variation .. I notice few differences in places .. some tongues and some slurs .. I presume to aid the retreat into the completion of the piece .. those little bits that allow one to get to the end .. to be honest I am still putting my face on after a time off ..
Wonderful
better tags on this video!! This video needs to be seen by more people!!!
Amo o som do Trompete
Great performance. I wish there was more Hakan recordings on youtube. I like his understated way of performing. Yes I agree with everyone and anyone who prefers him to Sergei N. Sergei's a machine and some of his life performances are atrocious. Andre's the king of piccolo and tone quality in the upper ranges, but Hakan is pretty dang good too.
for me hakan is the god of piccolo! and any new music!
un grande anche lui.....
Wow! best player of our times.
Wow! That's all I can say.
Well, so much for practicing...
he's the fucking master
2:46 variation 1 (theme)
Consider me inspired. I think I'll attempt this (it's in the Arban) although I'll fail.

What a wonderful music ! Magic Trumpet Channel like it ! (Stéphane PISO, French trumpeter on You Tube !) In French we say "Bravo !'
olá meu amigo vc mora em que paíz sou Bahiano Brasileiro
Have you heard this version?
watch?v=XicAdVWttLw
Does this sound like a robot? I don't think so. In fact, it is the best live performance so far.
anyone notice the videp isnt perfectly synced with sound
+Tim Cao Nope, the vid is ok. Is just that, at the beginning, the pianist is doing arpeggios so the attack of the bass happens before the upper melodic line. If you watch the pinkie on the right hand you should notice that it lines in sync with the highest melodic line.
He made a mistake at approximately 5:00
Fact: He did it on purpose to make us think he is still human on the trumpet when in fact he is still a god on the trumpet.
well done
wow! er hats einfach drauf!!
@oweowedpd Sergei's version might be faster but Hakan's I think has much more soul in it rather than playing like a robot.
存じ上げない人だけど上手すぎや
Salve, vorrei tanto avere la partitura di questa variazione della norma suonata dal super Hakan. qualcuno ce l'ha????? grazie anticipatamente
e nell arban
arban wrote the variations not bellini
never tried it, but it seems harder. Though obviously more flexible, after a mistake.
I'll stick to ddg though, works for me
很棒~good~台北縣~阿偉
@TICETOCAR To hail to Mr Hakan Hardenberger.
I now have a role model worthy of the title God Tier.
It's well done with very few mistakes which aren't a problem
The only thing i can say if i want to critisize is that it is too equal in the interprétation at some passages, which are better for me with some pauses in the phrase
why is the audience sitting on the floor?
Too bad the pianist isn't identified. He's excellent, as would be expected to accompany such a fine musician as Hardenberger.
It is Roland Pontinen. rolandpontinen.com/
*****
Good call. They look so similar.
@Louis Williams Yes.
its windy in there
Well, he is using a cornet, and that kind of thing happens if you are not used to the peculiarities of the cornet...
If you listen very closely, you can detect in his sound quality that he is principally a trumpet player who is using a cornet from time to time.
If you compare his sound to Tine Thing Herseth, you will find the exact opposite - she is a cornet player who uses a trumpet occasionally.
@alarachnebede The musician makes the music, not the instrument!
Really? And how exactly is that? Both of these players have reached a point of technical mastery well beyond what it takes to flawlessly handle an Arban theme and variations. If you like Nakariakov more, that's fine. Some people are mindlessly attracted to displays of freakish technique, but nobody's playing a cello or other string transcription here. This is a piece straight out of the standard solo repertoire. So what exactly does Nakariakov do that makes his performance of Norma better?
Or Jack Nicholson played trumpet.
How do you know it's a bach?
Well, I think i might be a bit late haha but if you look just under the 3rd valve slide you si a type of screw that prevents the slide to fall off and thats a bach signature mark. I hope you have understanded me because i'm spanish.
It's a cornet
:')
those Arban variations leave absolutely no place for any hesitation after a mistake. If you get out of your triple-tongue rhythm you might as well start over
That's the sound...
@alarachnebede no its not impressive its skill
Sergei Nakariakov's version will blow you away.
Hakan do tronpete de ouro no tocar valeu
a Pavarotti due to the cornet handling❤
I didn't know that Johnny Depp played piano.
Zeer goed uitzonderlijk drs Jan Zwiggelaar
gt
I don’t think you can top Hakan’s sound.
Maurice Andre for ever..................................
Nah. European Championships in Brussel 2002, the gala concert with soloist Maurice André. He was not forever, sadly.
what a face has the piannist:))
He is v good, but his intonation isn't perfect.
eflats mostly to high etc.
But his tuning is alive and endlessly correcting.
Which is a good thing
