Re: Mathias Höfs new CD

Marco,

I fully agree with you.

At first listen I had the same thought about Goedicke.
(I have many, many version of this piece btw)
Dokshizer has a fine version, but it is so fast that the pianist has trouble.
Close to this one is the Philip Smith/Joseph Turrin version.

What I also liked with this CD, is the pieces I have not heard before, Crespo, Piazzolla, Lawrence (the Gerswin tune).

Matthias is one of the outstandig trumpeters today, IMO!

Ole
