Jazz Trumpet Music
Can you help start me on my appreciation of jazz music?
I am just getting started enjoying jazz music. As instruments go, I love piano, bass and trumpet in that order. Can anyone suggest some artists that I would enjoy combining those instruments, or utilizing a few of them?
Claude Bolling is a great jazz painist and composer. He teamed up with classical flutist Jean Pierre Rampal to produce two great albums called Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano. You should immediatley recognize some of the tracks. They received radio play when released and have been used as music beds for commercials and news packages. They both feature only the piano, flute, drums, and sting bass. Two virtuoso's blending and battling through two great albums. Check out Bollings other works as well.
Another great album with more emphasis on trumpet with piano and bass is by the Yellow Jackets. I have a couple of their recordings but would only recommend Mirage a Trois. It is very upbeat and crisp with lots of syncopation and rhythm.
Jazz is such a wide music category and tastes carry vary tremendously. Don't forget some of the older artists like Duke Ellington and George Gershwin (perhaps more classical than truley jazz - An American in Paris - the music used for United Airlines commercials). There is some great music with the early mastes too.
Enjoy the music - the other answers have some great artists too!
