Crispian Steele-Perkins, hailed by critics as "the world's leading performer on the Baroque Trumpet," is renowned for concerto and solo appearances on stage and screen.

jtuctio musician in the Sadlers Wells (now English National) Opera and the Royal Philharmonic. He was also for 10 years professor of trumpet at London's Guildhall School of Music. He travels the world g1vmg recitals, lectures and master classes presenting programs which are both informative and entertaining. His playing has also reached millions in more than 85 soundtracks, including. such titles as A Bridge Too far, Batman, Gandhi, Jaws and James Bond films, and with signature tunes of television programs like "Dispatches" and "The Antiques Roadshow." He has participated in more than 800 recordings including 23 solo recordings. His interest in historical research and performance techniques has led him to restore more than 100 "natural" and early mechanical trumpets.
