Ed, I believe that was a little before his time there.
On that famous 1954 recording, the Bb trumpets are Bud 1st, Rudy Nashan 2nd, Bill Babcock 3rd, with a very young Vince Chicowitz on the 1st Eb part and Ren Schilke on the 2nd Eb part.
This and the famous Zarathustra were recorded just days apart.

I just got his American Trumpet in Prague CD. It is absolutely delicious!
Frank has what I want - a big gorgeous sound and superb musicality. |
"A summer camp"? Not just "a summer camp." The Claude Gordon Brass Camp!
I remember Kaderabek, his great playing and his sense of humor from that camp. While on stage, he was wiping his forehead with his handkerchief and he said to the audience, "It's sure hot up here." Then he muttered almost under his breath, but loud enough for us all to hear, "But not as hot as where (so-and-so) is now." I can't remember the name he mentioned, but he was referring to some past, by then dead conductor who had made his performing life difficult. There was a collective gasp from the audience, then roaring laughter. |

I recently phoned over to WCU to see if they could direct me to a phone number or mailing address. They didn't have anything for me. A little disappointing - but I left a message with the current trumpet professor.
Would anyone here know (my apologies for being a broken record) how one can contact him? The current trumpet section at West Point is attempting to collect stories from some of its trumpet alumni. It would be lovely to hear his old Army stories. We've already heard several about Mel Broiles. But, if you know more please share.
Thanks! |
