Trumpet player Darren Moore with musical energy and imagination

Trumpet player Darren Moore reveals familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light, from the huge sonic landscape of Mahler’s 2nd Symphony, to surprising instrumental combinations.

Darren Moore plays the trumpet and cornetto, performing with ensembles across the world including Multi-Story Orchestra and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe.

Today, Darren explains exactly what a cornetto is (not the ice cream
), and plays a track by Anna Meredith which always makes him think of very specific colours.

He also admires the vocal technique and control in a Georgian folk song sung by the Basiani Ensemble, and shows the exploratory side of historical performance in a recording of a concerto for two pianos by Mozart.

Plus, a piece by Monteverdi which is rather nerve wracking for cornetists everywhere


A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
