Bent Sørensen Trumpet Concerto co-commissioned by Borletti-Buitoni Trust, premiere with Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra

“Much excitement was attached to the World Premiere of the Danish composer Bent Sørensen’s new Trumpet Concerto, commissioned for trumpet virtuoso Tine Thing Helseth… Inspired by Hummel’s and Haydn’s classical trumpet concertos, Sørensen has composed a robust work quite typical for our time – a work which I absolutely believe will find its place at the great concert venues in the time to come… first and foremost full of devious musical expressions which attracts attention and stimulates curiosity… Tine Thing Helseth performs magic with her trumpet.”
