On April 27th, 2015 the classical music world lost a major figure when trumpeter and co-founder of the Empire Brass, Rolf Smedvig, died suddenly of a heart attack at age 62. Biscuits and Bach this Sunday remembers him by spotlighting his 1993 Telarc label album, “Ceremonial Music for Trumpet & Organ.” The album features many baroque favorites such as Purcell’s Trumpet Tune in D, Handel’s Royal Fireworks Music, and Bach’s Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring.
