Thank you for all your comments and messages. Mendez had a huge impact not only on my trumpet playing, but on my life, and it's my pleasure to allow both old and new generations of musicians a chance to see the legend play again.

If you'd like to learn more about Rafael Mendez, I recommend the book "Magnificent Mendez." It's a remarkable read, detailing the life of the late, great Mendez.

You can learn more about the book here:

And Dave Hickman sells the book on his website: http://www.hickmanmusicedit...
