I am a retired high school band director (34 years) and have been a cornet/trumpet player since my 7th grade year in 1959. I played cornet in Jr. and Sr. high and switched to trumpet in college. I play a Kanstul ZKT 1500 trumpet, a Yamaha 631G flugel and a Bach Strad cornet. I have played in concert bands, orchestras, jazz bands, jazz and lounge combos, party bands and rock bands. Currently, I am a member of the Georgia Big Band which performs frequently in the middle Georgia area. |
