However, if you're open to a few observations I would submit the following - The trumpet is much too loud and bombastic and the ensemble is considerably out of balance because of it (certainly the position of the microphone doesn't help). Remember it's NOT a solo trumpet concerto!

It sounded perfectly balanced to me considering the difficulty of the work. And it being a live concert. I would Imagen that it would be much harder to play softer considering that it is a smaller baroque trumpet as well as in order to play that high, one has to keep the air going into the instrument. That would take a steady flow of air to keep the register.
But that is just my opinion....
That is probably the best of your youtube videos Nate. Looking forward to seeing you again some time in the future.
