YouTube’s tagline is “Broadcast Yourself”, and though I’m not exactly broadcasting myself, I am being broadcast, so I suppose that counts for something. My good friend, colleague, and wonderful composer/conductor Thom Sleeper has put up video of a live performance of me playing his Concerto for Trumpet (with Thom conducting) on YouTube. This performance was done at the Beijing Modern Music Festival and you can find it by simply searching for “Craig Morris Trumpet” on YouTube. The camera work is a little “inspired”, but other than that it isn’t half-bad. There is also a new release on Naxos of me performing this same Concerto with the Frost School of Music Wind Ensemble that has just recently been released. Let me know how it sounds, because, believe it or not, I haven’t heard it yet!

Amazing playing Mr. Craig! I love your sound, seems that I have the exact same sound concept in mind(now the trouble is getting it to come out of the horn).
I know you probably hate this question but what was your setup on this youtube video? Were you using your Yammie?
Thanks!
