Here's a great video of long time Claude Gordon student and advocate Paul Cacia performing with his big band live at the Moonlight Tango in Sherman Oaks, California. It gets particularly interesting around 4:20 in the video (from a trumpet player's point of view).

Paul has gone through some serious medical issues the last few years. I exchanged a couple of emails with him a year ago and he felt he was on a road to recovery and was hoping to get back to the horn. From 2015:
