Music Minus One Trumpet-This volume 3 of the Signature Series will lean towards a jazzier concept than the previous volumes and to set that tone I chose Lullaby of Birdland as the first song! And who better to place in that #1 position than Mel Torme as the singer associated with George Shearing's jazz classic! I had the pleasure of playing with the Velvet Fog in a very memorable jazzy setting. It was in the 1960s and Mel did a two week engagement at NYC's Basin Street East with the Marty Paich Dektette Band. Let's go forward to the 21st century to my play-along version and a few guidelines on how to approach it. There are actually three approaches. First as the trumpet soloist then playing the unisonline with the horns and finally as a lead player on top of the little big band. Our next song When I Fall in Love was one of Nat Cole's many huge hits. It's a song I play often on my jazz gigs. Here's a very lush arrangement for you to explore the low and high register of the hrons meaning flugelhorn for the first chorus and trumpet for the out chorus. Notice that I hug the melody only adding ornaments here and there and a modest amount of embellishments. Please focus on the subtleties and nuances in phrasing which can't be complete captured with notation. Listening with the intention of acquiring these skills is the proper mind-set. -Bob Zottola.
