I have played for over 50 years. The sign in form only allowed me to state 8 years. I am a very capable trumpet player with a strong double on flute and I can play accurate lines on slide trombone and sing backup vocals. I also play vibraphone. I have a bachelors degree in classical trumpet playing and have spent a total of over 5 years playing R & B with road bands. I can write horn parts.
