Episode 19: Hanging With Frank Greene

Описание: From the home office in Lancaster, Pennsylvania comes this episode's Top Ten List of "The Top 10 Things To Never Say To A Lead Trumpet Player." Number 1, "You're good, but you're no Frank Greene"

And my guest for this episode IS Frank Greene.

Frank is one of the most in-demand lead trumpet players on the East Coast as well as a published author and coach. After attending North Texas State, Frank got his big start with Woody Herman, followed by a 5 year run playing lead with Maynard Ferguson. Frank has played with a who’s who list of artists including The Dizzy Gillespie All-Stars, and the Roy Hargrove and Christian McBride big bands. But it’s his time working with Paul Shaffer on the David Letterman show that officially makes Frank "The World’s Most Dangerous Trumpet Player."

Join Frank as he talks about how he is managing the changes caused by COVID1-19, being part of a historically significant period, playing with Vinyl Hampdin, how he developed his unique approach to trumpet pedagogy, the importance of knowing what you want your life to look like, breaking down the obstacles of forward motion, the importance of starting with fun, paying your dues, learning other player's processes while on the road, reprogramming your autopilot, the reasoning behind his latest book, the joy of embouchure changes, and so much more.

So pour yourself a big glass, pull up a chair and let the hang begin!
