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, I don't know if they are still offered, but at one time, when you joined ITG, you received all of the journals from 1976-1999 on a CDROM which allows all kinds of search options. I think you would enjoy something like this.

Happy New Year to you too!

ITG does still have copies of these CDROMS with all the journal articles up until '99. You might try emailing Dave Jones, the ITG treasurer at treasurer@trumpetguild.org and he could tell you if they are for sale. I do know they still have some in stock, though, because we had them at the ITG exhibit table at Midwest.

Bob Early conducted a session at last years ITG Conference on playing 2nd trumpet in an orchestra. A significant portion of the discussion turned out to be a comparison/contrast of working next Frank vs. working next to David Bilger. It was a very good in depth look at how a 2nd trumpet has to be a chameleon when the principal player changes. Quite enjoyable. I ate lunch with Frank the following day and since he had been unable to attend the session, he was very interested to have me review some of what Bob had said. That was probably the hilite of the conference for me.

Thanks for the link. I love reading stuff from the old guys. (Which is what some of us are rapidly becoming!)
