专辑说明:
　　这张专辑是鲍尔珊为EMI灌录的首张个人专辑。当年鲍尔珊只有24岁，两年后她赢得英国Classical BRIT大奖「最佳英国古典演奏家」的奖项，也是英国Classic FM与留声机杂誌合办「听眾票选奖」的得主。鲍尔珊顶著一头北欧美女的金髮，却从事一般很少看到女性演奏家身影的小号吹奏，而且她喜欢驾驶快艇在海上奔驰。这张专辑收录多首改编为小号与管风琴合奏的作品。选曲方面以美国民谣夏南度为分界，前半段是巴洛克时代的乐曲，后半段则是现代作曲家的作品，充满独特而崭新的创意。
　　史威林克的变奏曲以往很少被注意，它是以十六世纪末的德国颂歌为主题写成的，原是管风琴独奏作品，鲍尔珊和汤玛斯合作的改编，将高音部位的主题让给小号，吹奏时刻意避免採用现代小号家常用的颤音，藉以塑造文艺复兴时代的古风。普赛尔的四首亚瑟王选曲则採用巴洛克时代的无音栓小号吹奏。鲍尔珊以翼号吹奏由汤玛斯改编的美国民谣夏南度。以翼号吹奏，改编自管风琴乐曲的悲歌，是伦敦天普教堂音乐总监陶本-鲍尔的作品，他在这个职位一待62年，这首悲歌採用传统的英国颂歌写成。托玛西的「库斯科的耶穌受难週」是为法国小号家安德烈所写的，这个礼拜南美举行嘉年华会，所以这是一首描写狂欢的乐曲。梅湘的高音声乐练习曲原来是一首为歌手与钢琴合作的作品，这里由小号取代人声、管风琴则负责钢琴声部，就像梅湘大部份作品一样，异国的神秘色彩笼罩乐曲的音调，但独唱所维持的长线条，似乎是一道美丽而不规则的彩虹。以画家夏卡尔为耶路撒冷哈达萨医学中心所绘制的12幅彩绘玻璃为灵感写成的「窗」，是这位东欧作曲家艾班为管风琴所写的即兴曲，此曲要求演奏家展现即兴和变奏的技巧，它是鲍尔珊个人最喜爱的一首作品。

Inspired by a recent recital performance I attended featuring Ms. Balsom, I purchased her latest CD ("Bach Works for Trumpet"). I was completely blown away by her performance and immediately fell in love with the disc. And so began my quest to find "Music for Trumpet and Organ"- her debut album, released in the US in 2003.
I finally got it yesterday. I decided to put it in my CD player, and take it in while reading the program notes she included in the CD jacket. Wow, what a performance!
Ms. Balsom plays everything from Sweelinck's "Variations on 'Mein junges Leben hat ein End'" to Petr Eben's "Windows" with a sweet and captivating tone, and with virtuosic technical ability to match. Her performance on the "suite" of excerpts from Act IV of Purcell's "King Arthur," played on the baroque trumpet (basically a trumpet with no valves) was especially remarkable; and her performances of "Shenandoah" and George Thalben-Ball's "Elegy" on the flugelhorn were incredibly passionate. She captures the emotion of the pieces well.
Whether your interests are in late Renaissance or Baroque music, 20th century music, or anything in between; it's on this CD. And it's all played incredibly well. I would recommend reading her program notes that accompany the CD, they really add a lot to her performance.
The EMI Debut series has now been successful in drawing a number of exceptionally promising young artists to public attention, amongst them Thomas Adès and, more recently (and currently particularly newsworthy) the bass-baritone Jonathan Lemalu, hailed by some as the next Bryn Terfel and having just picked up a Gramophone award for best debut disc.
Anyone who happened to be listening to the Prom on the 19th August with the Australian Chamber Orchestra will already have heard Alison Balsom in Shostakovitch’s Piano Concerto in C minor, partnering Olli Mustonen and those with a particularly good memory may recall her winning the brass final of the BBC Young Musician of the Year in 1998. Indeed for a young brass player her pedigree already speaks for itself having appeared as soloist with the Philharmonia, Bournemouth and Ulster Orchestras as well as playing with the LSO and LPO amongst others.
Balsom explains in her booklet note that EMI gave her considerable freedom in choosing her programme for the disc and thereby lays my only real reservation. The objective (a daunting one as Balsom readily admits) was to seek out new material although what we get is a slightly uncomfortable blend of one vast original composition in the Eben, that whilst well coupled with the shorter Tomasi work seems rather ill at ease with the likes of Shenandoah and George Thalben-Ball’s well-known organ Elegy. It may be that Balsom was conscious of not duplicating works with Håkan Hardenberger’s release of music for the same combination that appeared on BIS earlier this year (also reviewed by the writer) although in fact it is only the Tomasi that is common to both discs.
It is Eben’s Windows that is the undoubted highlight of the disc, a weighty, dramatic tableaux in four substantial movements inspired by Chagall’s twelve stained glass windows at the Hadassah Medical Centre in Jerusalem (The same windows that in 1974, also inspired John McCabe’s orchestral piece Chagall Windows). Balsom mentions the unforgettable experience of recording the work at midnight in Paisley Cathedral. The silence and grandeur of the surroundings must have made an impression for this is an evocative performance of a characteristically deeply felt work. Anyone familiar with Eben’s music will know his brilliance as a composer for organ and the writing for the instrument here is every bit as demanding as the trumpet part, both Balsom and the young organist Quentin Thomas acquitting themselves with considerable aplomb.
In the Tomasi, Balsom may not quite have the spectacular security in the highest register of the piccolo trumpet that Hardenberger possesses but gives a slightly less hard-edged performance, with beautifully lyrical playing in the tranquil central section. Indeed it is Balsom’s lyrical playing that in many ways impresses most, a combination of her superb clarity of both tone and articulation, producing a seamless legato sound that truly shines in the Sweelinck, the most effective of the arrangements of early music on the disc. Whilst the Bach violin Partita is a fine vehicle for her virtuosity the genius of the original writing is such that any arrangement will always leave me slightly cold. The playing is, nonetheless, sympathetic.
Alison Balsom is a player we are likely to hear considerably more from in the coming years and this debut disc will do much to galvanise her already growing reputation.
