About

John Holt is principal trumpet of the Dallas Opera Orchestra and has performed and recorded with the Dallas Symphony, Fort Worth Symphony, Dallas Opera Orchestra, and Voices of Change. He is Assistant Professor of Trumpet at the University of North Texas.

“One of the standards of the trumpet repertoire, Kent Kennan’s Sonata, is here in all its accomplished glory…Holt plays [throughout the CD] with perfect technique and intonation, altering his sound deftly to suit the multitude of colors packed into these challenging works.” Gramophone, May 2005

“Facets 2 is a first-rate recording.” The Instrumentalist, October 2005

“The performances are excellent and the sound quality, in the Texas Mesquite Arts Centre, is thoroughly sympathetic.” Jonathan Woolf, MusicWeb, Feb. 2007

“John Holt has bestowed upon the trumpet community another excellent recording of some great recital repertoire…His rich, velvety tone is especially remarkable on Turrin’s exciting Two Portraits, as well as the stirring Someone to Watch Over Me. His performance of the Ewazen Sonata highlights his great control over a variety of tonal colors…Overall, this disc offers the listener very high quality performances of some wonderful recital repertoire, both standard and less traditional. I recommend this CD highly.” Peter Wood, ITG Journal, October 2005
