Mr. Zinno, what do you think of me talking to some booking agents out there about getting us some gigs, since we don't need to rehearse and we seem to be on the same page, also what are the chances of me getting some Nelson Riddle Charts from you ?
Yes, I actually held a 2 day trumpet rehearsal for The New York Trumpet Company CD recording we did here in Saratoga... I had 5 Trumpets all at once playing down the charts to the tracks cranked in 7.1 surround!
