Trumpet player yearning to expand playing ability and develop technique. I can read, write and arrange music. I can compose tunes with the use of music software. Midi arrange & setup keyboards and computer devices for home or studio use.
I've done studio work, played for church, jammed with a variety of musicians who express their musical ideas in a very unique way. I love"live" music, creative arrangements, interesting sounds, and uninhibited musical spontaneity.

Influences
Freddie is my trumpet/fluglehorn idol. I like all styles of jazz. I prefer to play with musicians who like to expand their musical ideas by creatively expressing their own arrangement of a tune or original piece. Its art/music or music/art.
Funk & R&B are the styles that I grew up playing in the late 70's 80's to present. I've played "just for fun" - because of my family obligations & priorities. I'm working toward taking it to another level with people(musicians) on the same page.
