If you haven’t watched this great Jazz video of Scott Englebright (aka “Scooter”) performing the tune Maynard Ferguson you’re in for a real treat. That’s right, Maynard Ferguson is the name of the tune. I always thought that was a weird name for a tune. What do you think? This was when Scott Englebright was […] Read the rest of this entry…

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…

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…

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…

You’re are going to love this live Jazz trumpet video of Arturo Sandoval, Randy Brecker, Chuck Findley, and Byron Stripling all taking a ride on Cherokee, trading eights, and starting and finishing with a great harmonized head of Cherokee. All four of these top notch trumpet players take phenomenal Jazz rides on Cherokee, which we […] Read the rest of this entry…

I really like this Jazz trumpet video clip of Adam Rapa testing trumpet mouthpieces. Adam Rapa really sounds great on the trumpet even when he’s testing out trumpet mouthpieces. I also had the chance to take a look at Adam Rapa’s website and it looks like Mr. Rapa has quite a busy schedule of gigs, […] 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…
