Stumbled upon this great video of Joan Tower's piece performed by the NY Philharmonic Brass (Philip Smith, George Coble, Phil Meyers, Joseph Alessi, Warren Deck) and Empire Brass (Rolf Smedvig, Jeffrey Curnow, Eric Ruske, Scott Hartman, Samuel Pilafian Quintets.
When I was in high school I took lessons with Ken Laudermilch from time to time. My regular trumpet teacher was a West Chester graduate so whenever he wasn't available I'd pick up a lesson with Ken. Anyway, I remember a Monday evening lesson where Ken had worked with Rolf Smedvig over the previous weekend, Ken couldn't say enough about what a monster player Rolf was and how awesome it was working with him. It's inspiring to hear someone you look up to talk about someone they admire. Some very good playing on this video, thanks!
