Evening! It's been great getting to know and meet everyone in the community over the last few weeks. I just started module 2 and am looking forward to digging in to really be able to professionalize the sound of my solos. Here is one of my first recordings of the blues.

Good afternoon all! My name is Nick Annan and I just joined the group. I am a trumpet player in Columbia, South Carolina (Go Gamecocks!). CPA is my day job but as my team members and clients can see, the trumpet is always lurking in my background.

Shout out to brayden!!! I love your improv man and your character lol. I will continue to resolve up to the one from the three because of you! Keep glowing and getting better my brother!

I had multiple ideas floating around my mind all day so I just had to test it out on today’s practice. Still didn’t come out the way that I imagined it, but this was the closest that my horn responded to my ideas this week. :)

Hi everyone, My name is Anthony Mora, and I am a freelance trumpet player and pianist from Los Angeles. I'm excited to be a part of this community, and I look forward to getting to know and learn from you all. I come from a classically trained background, but jazz is what ultimately got me started to pursue a music career. My goal is to improve my improvisational skills so that I can confidently say "yes" to every opportunity that comes my way. Here's a transcription of Red Rodney's solo from "Blues for Alice" that I've been working on.
