    It really is time that someone played a proper tribute to our brass players and think this simple number does it nicely.

    Absolutely brilliant. Mike is probably one of the best Trumpet players on the planet. I like the miller styling.

    Mike Lovatt probably grew up listening to Conrad Gozzo playing this , as did I. I never cam close . Bravo Maestro Lovatt . What a loving tribute to GOMOTS ! Check Goz out here :ua-cam.com/video/inmYyMGht5k/v-deo.html&ab_channel=AlexSuzano

    Not bad, but I prefer to hear cleaner slotting, for instance when playing the opening phrase, slurring the D#, F#, to the B, I like to hear a clean break between the F# and the B, and the same thing on the interval of sixths from the B up to the G#. without clipping those little [in effect] grace notes in there. It sounds cleaner and demonstrates more control and a better command of the instrument. I wouldn't go so far as to give this performance a thumbs-down, I think it's a good job. One time, I was showing my trumpet to a "trumpet-manufacturing expert" at a conference and he commented that he didn't like my make/model of trumpet, citing that it was impossible on that horn to do those slurs from G to high C without clipping the Bb in there. Then I proceeded to demonstrate it without the grace note effect. Then, I went him one better and slurred octaves from C to high C, and the same thing chromatically down through the partials. Then I did tenths, C to high E and down the line. After demonstrating that, I said to him "I'm sorry, I forgot, what was it that you think is wrong with this horn?" Ever since then, and thanks to that guy, I now listen for people slurring and getting those unintended grace notes in there, he got it stuck in my head.
