"Hardenberger is often rhythmically too straitlaced for this material. Still, we can admire his smoky flugelhorn tone and deft high passagework on muted trumpet. And the selection, from My Funny Valentine to The Godfather theme, is enjoyable schmaltz."
(The Times)
Håkan Hardenberger has earned a reputation of breaking new ground for the trumpet, commissioning works from the world's foremost composers.
On this disc, he shows a different side to himself in arrangements of his favourite songs and film themes.
Hardenberger is joined by his long-standing collaborators: the Academy of St Martin in the Fields and the pianist Roland Pöntinen, who also has orchestrated several of the arrangements.
