...and here is the conversation that I had with one of the trumpet players about the artistry of "James Morrison"; it is just amazing!
Here is one which demonstrates his ability to play polyphonic notes on the trombone...
...and here is James Morrison playing on the trumpet and piano:
...and here he is on the trumpet and trombone:

The selections that I list in the first two-or-three paragraphs, are pieces I want you to be currently listening to. I'll perhaps mention the tune and state something about it, and then I'll list a URL (site that you click on or copy to your browser), and then you can listen to it. I'll give you the first tunes that I would like you to listen to.
The first one is the band composition "Pictures at an Exhibition, movements VIII, and IX. Its URL is:
https://www.google.com/search?q=Pictures+at+an+exhibition+Part+3+Moussorgsky+Transcribed+for+the+Goldman+Band+by+Erik+Leidzen+youtube&oq=picture&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBggAEEUYOzIGCAAQRRg7MggIARBFGCcYOzIGCAIQRRg7MgYIAxBFGDkyBggEECMYJzIQCAUQLhivARjHARixAxiABDIKCAYQABixAxiABDIKCAcQABixAxiABDIHCAgQABiPAjIHCAkQABiPAtIBCDQ3OTBqMGo0qAIAsAIB&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:f340a069,vid:C6m-m7_5gpk,st:0
So either you can mouse click on the above, or copy it to your browser. If anyone doesn't know how to do that, I'll be able to explain it to you sometime when I have my computer with me.
Another song I want you to listen to is "Chorale and Shaker Dance":
Then I might place some selections that are just good listening aids at the bottom of each email (or I might just leave them there). You can refer to them to listen so that you can become a "Sharper" musician.
I am not able to make it to this Monday's rehearsal; Sheldon will be taking the rehearsal. I will be in Rosemount IL (Chicago) for an industrial trade show -- PTXPO.
Very good,
Talk later,
I'll see you two Monday's from now,

Another fine arrangement of "Pictures at an Exhibition" to listen to is this orchestra arrangement -- So you can get the entire experience of the whole group -- it is with a Conductor's Score".
Always remember this: Wherever you go, there you are!
...and definitely remember this:
Never put off 'til tomorrow what you could do today, because you might like it today, and you might want to do it again tomorrow!
Sorry! No more NOTES....
