Our Take

Listen up, brass enthusiasts, because Alison Balsom is back with her latest album, "Quiet City," and it's a doozy. Known for her virtuosic trumpet skills, Balsom takes a more mellow approach on this release, delving into the dreamy, atmospheric world of classical music.

From the hauntingly beautiful title track to the delicate nuances of Debussy's "Syrinx," Balsom's playing is nothing short of mesmerising. Her tone is warm and rich, effortlessly soaring over the lush orchestral accompaniment.

But it's not just Balsom's technical proficiency that shines on this album - it's her emotional depth and artistry that truly set her apart. Each note is imbued with meaning and passion, drawing the listener in and refusing to let go.

While some may find the album's slower pace a bit snooze-inducing, true connoisseurs of classical music will appreciate the attention to detail and the sheer beauty of Balsom's playing. "Quiet City" is a masterclass in understated elegance, showcasing Balsom's unparalleled talent and musicality.

So sit back, relax, and let Alison Balsom take you on a journey through the ethereal sounds of "Quiet City." You won't be disappointed.
