Intersections by noted Canadian composer, Bob Buckley is an interplay between the different sections of the band. The opening melody starts off with the alto, tenor, flugel, and trumpet and then develops into a ‘call and response between the reeds and brass. The next section opens with a line played by the bari, bass bone, guitar, and bass, contrasted with horn stabs, leading into the first solo sections. Later a cannon between the upper and lower voices leads to an ensemble section, another solo section and a blazing finish. A fun chart where all sections have a chance to shine!

To succeed as a trumpet player you must perform your section part impeccably, in rapport with the lead player. Think with the lead player's brain. Play it with him or her. Blow up to, not over his or her volume and intensity. Don't wait to hear what the lead player does or you'll be late. Vibrato comes from the lead player. If he's not using it, you're not using it. Dan Collette's book on lead and section trumpet playing is a very well thought out and extremely useful tool for all aspiring and professional trumpet players. In a common sense approach and playing in a variety of styles, Dan demonstrates and clearly explains his perspective of lead and section playing. The trumpet sectional quartets by Steve Guttman are excellent and the execution of these etudes on the CD as played by Dan Collette playing all 4 parts is flawless and nothing short of inspiring. This work should prove itself to be required listening and reading for all serious trumpet players.

Us, composed by Thad Jones in 1970 and originally recorded that same year, is one of the pieces which defined the new sound of the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Jazz Orchestra. While being one of the most successful, early melding of big band instrumentation with rock rhythms and rhythm section instruments, it also includes an a cappella chorus for the 'band' (for this version, read: trombones) and intricate saxophone lines which are challenging but very rewardingly playable. David Fletcher has done a magnificent job of translating the richness of Thad's voicings and the exuberance and spirit of this piece to the Trombone quintet plus rhythm section instrumentation of the University of Illinois Jazz Trombone Ensemble, who have performed it at both American Trombone Workshops and International Trombone Festivals. David Fletcher, a member of the award winning University of Illinois Jazz Trombone Ensemble under the direction of Jim Pugh arranged this great chart for Trombone Quintet and rhythm section. It is about 4 minutes in length and includes improvised jazz solos for Trombone 2 and Electric Guitar.
