Yea, I was watching the Olympics while walking the tread mill and it was hummin hot and fast. Oh! This is a trumpet forum.
When I was studying with Bernard A. in Oberlin College, he mentioned to me that I have a sound that many pros are fighting for. This was during a time that I had no "working" concept of sound. In fact, I did not even know that there was such a thing. Presently, I develped a very strong concept of sound and the sound is very much better than it was in college. I also now have a Taylor trumpet.
In the view of some realism as someone mentioned, I have this terrific sound but the opportunities for using it seems to be much less than when I was in college. You don't think it has anything to do with age, do you? Maybe it is just my "
huskaka".
