To be principal trumpet for Star Wars 1977 = GOAT
The brass band world produced many of the finest musicians. Maurice was probably the best.
I was absolutely OBSESSED with the LSO when I was young because they did the Star Wars music. Anything Star Wars. All the greats are passing, its so sad.
Maurice was a fabulous player and I remember him when he was with the BBC Northern - incredible playing for Kurt Masur in Shostakovitch 1. A no nonsense player who must've been sorely tested by the Celibidache rehearsals..............
A fitting tribute to one of the all-time greats by John Williams!
He was a swashbuckler of a musician. Incomparable trumpet player.
This trumpet playing is out of this world
