Just Like Dancing
British trumpeter Alison Balsom likes to compare trumpet playing with dancing. It's the artistry that really matters. "You need this incredible physical strength," she says. "But you don't bother the audience with it. It's just something that's on the inside." In today's show, Balsom gives an energetic, unbothered performance of the Hummel Trumpet Concerto, from a concert in Lugano, Switzerland.
