Just came upon this site and joined. I guess I am the grandfather to you kids, have been playing trumpet and cornet since 1955 in many groups and am a 36 yr member of the fabulous Kalamazoo Concert Band. Glad you see you young folks are playing and interested in other's ideas. Very worthwhile to keep playing as long as possible, just not in your school years.
I started playing trumpet in 1989 in Washington State. I went in the Navy in 1997 and have taken my trumpet with me everywhere I went. Okinawa, Japan, Cuba, Perto Rico, Rota, Spain, Souda Bay Crete Greece, and the last place is Kuwait but I couldn't take my horn there. Those are all the overseas places. I've taken my horn all over the US as well. Now I make my home here in Pa. So far I have been playing for 18 years.
Ive been playing for 9 years, and I'm still going..majoring in music performance and education. I'm actually quite experienced. Someone should shoot me an email. I'm trying to get a quintet or quartet started. Preferably a quintet. It's tough to find ppl that are good and dedicated.
