This guy had a great ear, a lot of soul, fine knowledge of chords, a unique sense of style and cool, original licks. He had weak chops but could keep you tuned in all night. Today, we have too many iron-lipped screamers who mainly exploit that aspect of their playing. Listen to Chet!
I like to play in the deep register. I was never a high-note specialist. My range goes from the bottom of the horn up to around C or D. High D is about it for me... about two-and-a-half octaves, I think. But in these two-and-a-half octaves, I can say everything I have to say. -Chet Baker
@@albertmoore4445 Personally, I’m a lead trumpet player and I have no problems even up to high G with full sound, but when I improvise, I don’t like to go above C, even 2 octaves are too much for me to express my thoughts
I assume that his opening 4 bars on this solo is a funky version of "I Got Rhythm". It certainly sounds like it to me. I don't know whether others think so?
oui étant saxophoniste mais j'ai retrouvé le morceau sur le net, et compris le sens de ta chaine qui est basé sur les solo de trompette , c'est très bien aussi @@AlexeyStepin
@@voilierimaginelaventure8976 Oui, je joue de la trompette. Pour l’instant, je ne fais que des transcriptions pour la trompette, même si à l’avenir je pense commencer à le faire également pour d’autres instruments.
