You have got to listen to Roy Hargrove's CD, "Moment to Moment." This may be the best collection of ballads I have ever heard - especially "Always and Forever." Roy's phrasing is other-worldly. Simply fantastic. Turn down the lights. Sit down by the fireplace. Pour yourself a cup of coffee and listen closely. _________________ Bach Stradivarius 37 (1971)

Bill Evans: The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings, 1961.
Lots of great music everyone is listening to!
As I was reading through the reponses on this forum, I saw the Philip Catherine with Tom Harrell reply. I have most of Tom's recordings and a few of Philip's, in particular, the two with Chet Baker.
Well, sorry to ramble,....
I just went online and bought Philip Catherine's I Remember You, Moods V.1, and V.2. That's who I'll be listening to when the CDs arrive! _________________ Several Trumpets and Flugelhorns!

Moment to Moment by Roy Hargrove is the best collection of ballads I have ever heard. This is now my favorite recording of trumpet/flugelhorn music. _________________ Bach Stradivarius 37 (1971)

Just finished listening to LA Phil perform Mahler 9. Live! At Benaroya Hall in Seattle (Home of the SSO).
I had never heard this live before and it was quite the experience. Horns had a Ton of work and played fantastically. Mr. Hooten, the Principal trumpet, played beautifully. Lots of solos, each musical. I especially enjoyed the high and quiet solos in the (I think) third movement. Wow.
Mute note...before the performance began, I borrowed my brothers binoculars and spied a cool mute. In addition to a standard looking straight mute, Mr. Hooten had what looked to be an all-wood, brown mute. I was sitting in the top balcony pretty much straight in his path so I had a downward-looking angle, but it looked like a cup mute....made of wood. I think he only used it briefly in the third movement. Interesting.
The performance was sublime. Thanks for the ticket, Dad!
