The amount of work it takes to make brilliance seem that effortless. Phenomenal.

Exalting Brilliant Delightful GRACEFUL RESONANT PERFORMANCE ❤❤❤ SHARING GODS ABILITY AND DEXTERITY

Absolutely flawless playing--amazing.

Maybe the fastest tongue on a trumpet I've ever heard. Crazy speed and fluidity

Ja,Ole Edvard…dette er jo i den internationale toppklass!! Hilsen Brynjar

I just scrolled down the comments on this performance and did not see even one "thumbs down." This man is in total command of the trumpet!

Incredible tone, attacks, accuracy, dynamics, speed, consistency, and musicality. Really enjoyable to listen to.

Have heard Napoli so many times that l am bored to tears with it, but not this performance, l have listened to it numerous times in a row and have come back to it today.

Probably the best performance I've ever heard of this solo . Fantastic !

suono, tecnica, articolazione, staccato,tutto, performance incredibile, bravo!

Sei unico Sei grande Sei Tutto COMPLIMENTI

Bravoooop Csodaszép trombita játék... Köszönöm szèpen!!!❤❤❤😊😊😊

I'm a Mendez and Nakariakov fan, because I like technical ability. Now I'm an Edvard fan as well. Great tone, as well as everything else.

貴女は最高のミュージシャンです👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗 貴女のファンが日本に居ますよ！！ここに！ モンキー・柳は貴女の大ファンです😊 素晴らしい演奏をいつまでも👍😊

No words can give that performance the credit it deserves. Unbelievable! 😲

Гениально! Уникальный трубач по всем параметрам, звука и непревзойденной техники!!! Брависсимо!!!

I never get tired of hearing this piece Napoli played! Fantastic!!!

Mr. Ole Edvard Antonsen is supernatural. Greetings from Brazil.

Someone give this man a medal! Damn!!!!

Incredible to say the least. Ole had to have been born with a trumpet in his hands. Just perfection.......

I saw Antonsen when he was a featured performer at the International Trumpet Guild conference in Baltimore more than 30 years ago. Very young, and a flawless performer in front of hundreds other trumpet players. Carnival of Venice among other difficult pieces.

I cannot think of ever hearing a better performance. I especially enjoy the cornet as the instrument selected for this performance. The sound of the cornet is full and round and yet brilliant also. This is a masterful performance. Bravo!

Wonderful player and wonderful to see him playing a cornet. This tune is well suited to the darker timbre of cornet. An excellent showman, too.

I am SO glad he picked that cornet for this piece. It was PERFECT! The old Rome feeling it exudes is amazing. Great performance!

Was für eine unglaubliche Interpretation! Wirklich herausragend!

I could have practised 23 hours a day and never would have been as good as this

Wonderful soloist and orchestral accompaniment! And a special "bravo" for the video director, whose judicious selections of shots, switching on the musical phrase boundaries, keeping musicians in view who were playing something of interest, framing the soloist up close so we could watch his fingerings, and always getting back to the soloist after going to the orchestra at the phrase endings!

Super!!!!! Bravissimo!!!!! Wonderful player!!!!! Just fantastic!!!!! Brilliant!!! I without knowing what to write! ! ! The most many thanks! ! !

I keep coming back to this!

Nothing less than stupendous!

Having lunch with Ole today in Oslo. I'm looking forward to meeting this wonderful musician!

It's not just the blistering pace and fingering. You have to work so, sooo hard to get chops this sensitive and flexible--reminds me of Maurice Andre playing Carnival of Venice lightly and at lightning speed.

Brilliant playing in every way.

MAGNIFICENT OLE!

ABSOLUTE LEGEND! No question of it.

This video makes me want to cry at my own abilities

That was simply awesome!

One scary set of chops. Very impressive indeed. I truly like the way he doesn't change the tune to make it too "showy" and that the casual listener (non-player) would probably miss the greatness. But those in the know, with a trained ear can hear the magnificent arrangement that on the surface sounds so.....normal. Outstanding.

So good to hear this well known solo played on the cornet with an orchestra rather than a brass band. Well played excellent articulation. A joy to listen to.

Awesome -flawless. Orchestra & cornet complimenting each other beautifully.

I can just say incredible

Very very impressive !! I love the technical mastery and musicality. Bravo !! A thousand times !!

Incredible playing, showmanship, articulation, control and everything in between

Never get tired of him.

Just found you tonight. This has to be the best version of this piece I've ever heard!! Doesn't get any better than this folks.

No one played this tune as good as you I heard them all .you are number one

Too bad you can only like a video once! Amazing performance, musically AND visually!

Just stumbled across this. Amazing virtuosity! And the whole performance was so fun to watch.

Fantastic! He is so good even a string player in the orchestra would know it.

Too many soloists sacrifice tone for technical show off. This guy has it all - tone and technique. sounds really well with orchestra.

Супер.браво

du jamais entendu dans ce morceau autant de brillance de légèreté et d élégance sans compter la virtuosité incroyable viva l artiste

This performance is so satisfying to listen to. I enjoyed every minute of it! Such an amazing tone and technique.

And, he performed this delightful bit on the Bflat Cornet, as was written for. Helluva job, my friend.

браво!

Best version I've ever heard. Bravo

But seriously one of best I've heard since James shepard

A beautiful trumoet solo. Looks more like a cornet though. The sound is just stunning, and the articulation! WOW! You blew My mind! i can only dream of doing such good playing!

Very nice performance and beautifully played!

the goat in classic musique with maurice andré and michael tambour

Just one word : Magnificent ! Performance is wonderful.

Best one I've ever heard, since it's a virtuose piece of music, unbelievably!

Perfect.

So nice to hear a virtuoso non pressure performer.

Великолепное звучание трубы! Необыкновенное мастерство солиста-трубача! Браво маэстро!

Beautiful cornet technique and control ! He really knows where he is going and how to get there. To think that I had never heard of Mr. Antonsen! I will have to become more familiar with his playing. He is a true master of the instrument.

The finest trumpet performance I have ever heard.

Wielki Mistrz !!!!!

Wow. What a ride! Increadible glorious and flawless performance. Congrats Ole! I just can't understand why 126 violinist have given a thumb down on this. Their vinegar must have fallen very badly at breakfast. ;-)

semplicemente mostro

Fantastic

People probably dislike because they thought that he was a show off but I think that he deserves to be if he has gotten this far absolutely incredible

Superb.

Incredible...is the only reaction I can give. I'm flabergasted!!!

Unreal!

¡Absolutamente maravilloso y magistral! mi corazón pudo tocar la música, mis oídos la vieron y yo me visto con ella. ¡Bravísimooooo!

Ole imádjuk a játékod.Borzasztô könnyed laza.Szerintem mi magyarok ezt ìmádjuk.Köszönjük neked!!!

The best of O melhor

J'hallucine. Je suis certain qu'il n'y a pas 5 personnes dans le monde capables de jouer ça. Exceptionnel

That's pure muscle on those lips,Fantastic playing Bravo.

Una maravilla.

Wow great job

OK now I need a break. Not sure how I can listen to anything after *that*. ❤

Great Norwegian trumpeter. Brynjar Hoff

Incredible! Bravo! ENCORE!!

He got the chops

Bravo !! Excellent well played !

Ufffff How its possible? Is there some tricks? wow... no more words... Ole, you are amasing!!!!

Sou apaixonado por na esta música . Escuto sempre . Faz bem para o meu EGO

wonderful playing--I remember the times he came to Minneapolis for the Leiv Festival--good memories!

No way my lesson teacher recommended me this to play as a junior in highschool. I don’t know what drugs he was on but I want some

This was such an amazing performance I lost count saying OMG the whole time!

4:20, lol the alternative concert master thought Edvard would thank her too x)

Wow! Amazing..... No words for me..........

Mais que um fenômeno,top a execução!!! Parabéns ❤❤❤

Nothing else to say, Ole is the most virtuous and happy players I ever heard... happy to get this beautiful masterpiece..!!

i've been honoured to play in bands with richard marshall playing this, this is better

Best performance I've heard of this solo by far. Bravo.
