Alison Balsom is the world’s preeminent female classical trumpeter. She is an unique and independent artist who has broken through to the mainstream whilst retaining her integrity and core musical values. Exceptional talent, a glamorous stage presence and a witty and engaging personality make Alison one of the most exciting and bankable artists in the core classical world today.

Alison’s new recording of modern and contemporary repertoire marks an important artistic stepping stone in her career. This labour of love features the world premiere recording of Seraph, James MacMillan’s trumpet concerto written for Alison, works by Takemitsu and Zimmermann and includes her long-awaited recording of the ever popular Arutunian Trumpet Concerto.

'...none of the energetic string players of the Scottish Ensemble, transfused with student blood from the Sainsbury Royal Academy Soloists, could beat the lady in red, Alison Balsom…Britain’s favourite trumpeter produced a sound so warm, so bold, that it seemed more than the hall could hold.'
