|
The Mendez biography, MAGNIFICENT MENDEZ, has been expanded to 161 pages (8.5 X 11 format) and includes over 100 more photos, letters, music manuscripts, record covers, and programs than the first edition.
The original edition has been out of print for several years. This edition is done to celebrate the 100th birthday of Rafael Mendez (1906-1981). The text is the same and is written by Dr. Jane W. Hickman and Dr. Del Lyren.
I added a preface plus quotes from several famous current trumpeters who talked about Mendez. Quotes are by Herseth, Sandoval, Voisin, Sachs, Bilger, Vizzutti, Endsley, McNab, Shew, Severinsen, and others.
Cool book!
