Mead, Steven - Ponchielli Concertos

Amilcare Ponchielli's wind concertos number among the most virtuosic works of the romantic era.  The Mecklenburg State Orchestra of Schwerin and the soloists Giuliano Sommerhalder, Roland Fröscher, and Simone Sommerhalder present us his concertos for trumpet, euphonium, and oboe in a swift parforce chase.

This Concerto is one of the first major works for the euphonium.
