Maurice Andre Münchinger Xmas Oratorio

[Lukarino]

I have recently acquired some old LPs, one of which being Karl Münchinger’s 1967 Bach Christmas Oratorio. The trumpets are not credited, but when listening to it I thought it sounded a lot like Maurice Andre. I compared it to the 1965 Karl Richter recording, which does credit Andre as soloist— the phrasing and sound is very similar. Can anyone confirm that it is him on this record? And for that matter, is he also on the 1971 Münchinger B Minor Mass?

To make it easier to compare, I will provide links to both Spotify and YouTube recordings of both.

Here are Spotify links to the Richter:
Grosse Herr: https://spotify.link/yzYciT9QYCb
Chorale no. 64: https://spotify.link/moTi1VnRYCb

Or you can find them all in this YouTube video from Alex Susano, who compiled the trumpet highlights: https://youtu.be/U6nww-HUGK4?si=rSe7GiwzdGZ2Ypid

And here are the Münchinger Christmas oratorio excerpts, the recording in question:

Without even listening to the Richter recording for comparison, you can tell straight away from Grosse Herr that it's unmistakably Maurice Andre on the Stuttgart recording.

Nobody else sounded like that in 1967 (or since, for that matter). Marvellous!
