I wanted to share this smokin Jazz trumpet solo of Tom Harrell with the Phil Woods Quintet. When I was watching this Jazz video I noticed how Tom Harrell rests his fingers over his trumpet valves. I’m wondering if this helps his technique overall on the trumpet. According to how he sounds in the Jazz […] Read the rest of this entry…

Freddie Hubbard plays a lot of good minor Jazz licks in this solo with a few good licks that are definitely worth learning. I also like how Freddie Hubbard really gets into his solos and takes the mouthpiece […] Read the rest of this entry…

I love listening to Allen Vizzutti trumpet solos. Vizzutti is cool because he can do tunes like Fire Dance that sort of combine Jazz soloing along with classical trumpet technique that is really impressive. Things like double tonguing octaves, circular breathing, etc… Allen Vizzutti takes an awesome trumpet ride on this tune and an amazing […] Read the rest of this entry…

It’s always cool to hear a famous Jazz trumpet player like Terence Blanchard at a jam session. I’ve never got to hear him really play without a whole bunch of bendsĀ in his trumpet solo until I watched this Jazz video clip of him at the 2007 Vitoria Jazz Festival. I’m not 100% sure of […] Read the rest of this entry…

It was nice to hear Freddie Hubbard’s rendition of Joy Spring by Clifford Brown. I never heard him take a ride on this tune. Freddie Hubbard definitely does a great job of adding his unique Jazz style to the tune. One thing I’ve always noticed about Freddie Hubbard is that he likes to takes really […] Read the rest of this entry…

I ran across this interesting rendition of A Night in Tunisia trumpet solo cadenza by Allen Vizzutti on You Tube and I thought I would share it with you. Allen Vizzutti performed this excellent trumpet cadenza with the Temple Jazz Orchestra. Allen Vizzutti also demonstrates some really nice circular breathing techniques and cheesy stage humor […] Read the rest of this entry…

Here’s a nice Jazz trumpet solo by Wynton Marsalis on trumpet with the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra. There are some very nice Jazz licks that are used in this trumpet solo. It is also just a very enjoyable Jazz trumpet solo all together. I don’t know the name of this tune, if anyone could help […] Read the rest of this entry…
