Improvisation is at the heart of Jazz, but knowing how to play stylistically correctly in a large Jazz ensemble is also a necessity. ‘How to Play Lead Trumpet in a Big Band’ offers tips, suggestions, examples and a play along tracks to help you put it all together. The repertoire covers many jazz styles from Basie to Latin and African-influenced music to ECM and contemporary jazz (the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, Bob Brookmeyer, etc.).
