Dave at that class talked about how he arrived at where he is today......that was in 2005. He talked of his studies with Laurie Frink. He talked of what influenced his playing and writing. It was a fascinating look into the heart and mind of an artist. I wish you had been there! I won't try to go any further because I'm sure I would get things jumbled.

I played at the Trumpet Nation Concert on Saturday. There were 19 players on that small stage. There were trumpets, cornets, a flugelhorn, a bass trumpet and a couple shofars. Dave is now playing cornet.......I wonder if the FONTmusic will get a new, revised name
