I was steered to this 2003 ITG Journal piece of Frank Kaderabek interviewing John Ware.
http://www.trumpetguild.org/pdf/2003...l/0301ware.pdf
I much enjoyed reading it.
On pages 29 and 30 (the interview is just 6 pages itself), the two gentlemen discuss themes I've seen Manny and y'all make, disscuss &/or touch upon here: technique, sound, and conductors. Especially
sound. There's more besides that seems germane to symphonic trumpet playing, and some great stories to boot.
I did not know this piece existed.
Happy New Year,
Richard Oliver
