| I don't want to step on Wilmer's toes by jumping in on this, nor do I want to sully the reputation of Wynton Marsalis, who is a fine trumpet player, but I have heard more than once that there was a lot of "studio magic" done on the Carnival album. It could be that he did breathe and it was later edited out in the studio. Then again, one of the things that I have noticed about Wynton on other recordings is his ability to play unbelievably long phrases without taking a breath.
I'm interested to hear what comes of this subject. |
