Tine Thing Helseth's new album - out on Friday May 28 - is a beautiful programme of works for trumpet and organ, some familiar, some bound to be new discoveries for many listeners. As the trumpeter herself puts it: 'Many of the pieces are music that a lot of us associate with special events in life, both festive and more serious. Music can often be liberating and help us deal with our feelings. At weddings, funerals and at other significant moments, music elevates and underscores the mood.' Recorded with organist Kåre Nordstoga and released on the Lawo label, it's the subject of this week's Podcast, for which Helseth joined Gramophone Editor Martin Cullingford.

Gramophone Podcasts are presented in association with Wigmore Hall, where having streamed more than 300 concerts over the past year, the venue's doors are open again for an anniversary festival celebrating the Hall’s 120-year history. See concert listings beneath the player below, and find out more at Wigmore Hall's website.
