So, does that mean you're practicing out of this new book and are getting results?
Ray Vega and I exchanged some emails after he got this new book, and he sent me a quote to use on my website. You can see it
right here.
I did a recording session on Tuesday and Thursday (yesterday) where I was the arranger and entire horn section. I played trumpet 1, trumpet 2, trumpet 3, and trombone 1 & 2. I never got tired, I got about 90% of the tracks right in one take (had to "fix" a few chipped notes) and even blew a few improvised solos on trumpet and on bass trumpet.
Needless to say (and Tim knows this better than most), I could have never even dreamed about doing that without all I learned from Doc Reinhardt. The book that this thread is all about is my attempt to share what I've learned with the brass world. It does my heart good to know that others are benefiting from it.
