Paris

~ Release by Alison Balsom (see all versions of this release, 2 available)

Annotation

An 'astonishing virtuosa' (The Times) with 'limitless potential' (The Guardian), Alison Balsom is a multi-faceted trumpet player involved in a broad range of musical projects. The pieces on this collection inhabit a common Parisian musical world, but the voices that emerge from them are incredibly varied. From Ravel to Reinhardt, Balsom illustrates the flexibility and expressiveness of her instrument, supported by the orchestra of jazz composer and trumpeter Guy Barker.
