Title: Wonderful Music, esp. "Prayer" by Hovhaness
Review: I agree with the previous reviewer who loves the rendition of "Prayer of St Gregory" on this CD. It's like Smedvig is praying with his trumpet. The voicings are terrific, too. If I'm not mistaken, the final phrase is played by a French horn, not a trumpet. It is more muffled, distant, with a mellower tone. Almost like God is answering the prayer from far away (ie heaven). This piece of music really lends itself to the listener's imagination with regard to the topic of the prayer, the identity of the person praying, and the outcome of the prayer. This is one of my favorite CDs due to its inspirational quality. Unfortunately I lost the disc but kept the jewel case. Now I'm on Amazon to order a replacement.
