About

The baroque trumpeter Josh Cohen is among the most s ought-after clarino specialists in North America. A native of the Washington, DC area, he performs regularly with most of the leading early music ensembles in North America and has appeared as principal or solo baroque trumpet with ensembles such as Tafelmusik (Toronto), Washington Bach Consort, Studio de musique ancienne de Montreal, Arion Orchestre Baroque (Montreal), The Bach Sinfonia (Washington, DC), Seraphic Fire (Miami), Apollo’s Fire (Cleveland), and the Sebastians (New York) to name but a few. The development of historically informed trumpet playing has come a long way since the very early days of the movement, from coiled trumpets – first produced by Steinkopf-Finke, and played by Walter Holy in a 1962 recording of the Second Brandenburg Concerto under Harnoncourt – to the first modern baroque trumpets of Meinl & Lauber. Devoted to a broad cross-section of trumpet repertoire from the late seventeenth century through the mid-eighteenth, this recording shows how far the art of playing the baroque trumpet has advanced.

Reviews

March 2023

This varied programme of Baroque trumpet virtuosity begins with a fanfare attributed to Gottfried Reiche, a Leipzig trumpeter who played for Bach on many occasions...It is, however, the Telemann Concerto for trumpet, two oboes and continuo which stands head and shoulders above the remainder of the programme.

July/August 2023

The playing of Baroque trumpeter Josh Cohen is simply enchanting; he not only performs with faultless technique in every dimension one can name—breathing, intonation, articulation and legato, dynamics, and so on—but with a glorious purity and beauty of tone that is totally devoid of any hint of shrillness or edginess. Moreover, he is genuinely spirited and expressive, communicating joy or solemnity as needed.

Sep/Oct 2023

Cohen’s playing is authoritative, his tone and intonation flawless, with a smooth legato that sings and speaks. His sense of rhythm and time is rock-solid. The refined string playing of Ensemble Sprezzatura complements Cohen’s trumpet work and makes for a recital that conveys warmth, energy, and conviviality.

March 2023

Certainly this is a recording designed for the pleasure gardens, not the battlefield.
