Hi all,

I was about to post about 4 books by Prof. Pat Harbison of Indiana University , that I have just what you were asking for, but PH beat me to it. Well, I second his post.

I also have Al Vizzutti's book which is excellent, but these 4 books are defiantly" What the doctor ordered” .

Technical Studies for the Modern Trumpet
20 Authentic Bebop Jazz Solos
Except from Technical Studies for the Modern Trumpet
Samples from 20 Authentic Bebop Jazz Solos

Here is Prof. Pat Harbison's website: http://www.patharbison.com/

I just heard his new CD " Conspiracy Theory " ( I don't have a copy yet, I actually heard it over another IU alumnus house , Charlie Davis place, who speaks very highly of Prof. Harbison , but it’s on my Christmas List ).

Prof Harbison has been a highly regarded educator in Jazz Studies for many years, studying with the great David Baker and trumpet with the immortal trumpet teacher Bill Adams ( Charlie Davis , Jerry Hey and Larry Hall are also Mr. Adams students ) who’s methods I also advocate and practice daily.

By the way, Joey Tartell , former Maynard Ferguson lead trumpet player , is now also on the staff at Indiana University.
What a powerhouse trumpet dept. IU has. If only I was 18 again.

PS: You can put your hands down now and go practice.
