Jon Faddis playing trumpet high notes on Mood Indigo

Posted on June 26, 2009 by Sweets

You’re really going to love this trumpet solo of Jon Faddis on Mood Indigo if you haven’t heard it yet in the many references I’ve made to it. If you have heard it, you’ll still love to hear it again because it’s just that good. Jon Faddis plays a bunch of lip trills on a […] Read the rest of this entry…

Freddie Hubbard trumpet solo on Open Sesame

Posted on June 20, 2009 by Sweets

This Jazz trumpet solo of Freddie Hubbard is really great. Very melodic and builds very nicely. The tune Open Sesame, from the album Open Sesame, switches back and forth between G minor and C minor (I think – let me know by commenting). Lots of cool minor Jazz licks to take advantage of in this […] Read the rest of this entry…

Ryan Kisor trumpet solo on Fly me to the Moon

Posted on June 17, 2009 by Sweets

Take a listen to this nice Jazz trumpet solo of Ryan Kisor on Fly me to the Moon. I can’t say much about the sax player, so the comments say in You tube. This Jazz video displays good use of Ryan Kisor’s trumpet technique. Ryan Kisor’s trumpet sound is very clean on this tune. Notice […] Read the rest of this entry…

A very young Greg Gisbert takes an awesome trumpet solo on Love For Sale with the Buddy Rich Big Band. To Greg Gisbert’s left is another very young, but awesome lead trumpet player named Eric Miyashiro. I really don’t know how young they were in this Jazz video and I’m not even going to try […] Read the rest of this entry…

Here is a nice Jazz trumpet solo I found of Roy Hargrove taking a ride over some basic rhythm changes. I like this Jazz trumpet solo because Roy Hargrove nails all the changes and he makes use of good space throughout the trumpet solo. The name of the tune is apparently Da Costa De La […] Read the rest of this entry…

He definitely took a very nice Jazz trumpet solo on the tune entitled Four by Miles Davis. Terrel Stafford plays […] Read the rest of this entry…

Major ii V7 I Jazz lick with a b9 Tom Harrell played 2

Posted on May 31, 2009 by Sweets

I heard Tom Harrell play this Jazz lick in the beginning of his trumpet solo on Scrapple From the Apple off his Moon Alley album. This lick doesn’t necessarily have to be played over a ii V7 I, it can be played over a regular major chord as well. It’s a very scale like Jazz […] Read the rest of this entry…

Mat Jodrell trumpet solo at a Jam Session

Posted on May 31, 2009 by Sweets

I never heard of this trumpet player until today, but Mat Jodrell sounds great at this jam session. Mat Jodrell takes a ride on the tune Four by Miles Davis. The tune Four is one of my favorite standard Jazz tunes. This jam session took place at Jazz de Medianoche at Vitoria Jazz Festival back […] Read the rest of this entry…
