Introduction to the Firebird trumpet with Indofunk Satish - part 1

[Markworth]

I've seen a lot of horns, but never stumbled into this one. Genius idea. I see the slide and I'm thinking "yay, more low notes!"

NOTE: a friend of mine and huge Maynard Ferguson fan told me that he saw Maynard using a Firebird in 1978, and that it was credited on his albums as early as 1975. The dates that I quoted were sent to me in an email from Larry Ramirez himself. This may be because Maynard was playing a prototype, and that actual production of the horn began in 1983.

Basically, ignore the exact dates, they're not that important to the playing technique anyways :-D
