i was kinda set on trumpet since i can remember. My friend's dad happens to be a professional trumpet player who lived in Baltimore for a while. he was the first call person for records and performances. So very early on i got to hear him play and i loved it. in 6th grade i started playing and became really involved with it. During my switch to high school was when i got the trumpet that you see in my avatar. i call it Linda =) anyway, i play in my high schools jazz band, marching band, concert band, and pep band. and there are many non-school related activities. This past year i went to all-state and had a blast, we played John Barnes Chance's Incantation and Dance. Awesome piece of music. and just 2 days ago, i got to listen to Arturo Sandoval, that was a once in a lifetime experience that i will never forget. my main reason for jazz band in the first place is Arturo, and Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band. i listen to them both daily and love it. I hope to continue trumpet playing, and i am sure i will.
