Terell Stafford's Burning Trumpet Ignites the Mid-Atlantic Jazz Festival

[Sparkyk]

Love all of Terells playing, I love the agressivness he will attack a tune with yet knows when to be sensative. I have seen him live at various occasions the latest at JEN Conference dong the Oliver Nelson Tribute, great playing from all. I loved how him and Bobby Watson were cutting up.

[sheddingthealbatross]

Oh my goodness....Terrell!!!!  I have wondered for years what had ever become of you. This is Kathy Gililland. I was 1st chair flute in Mr. Janusek's Jr. High band back in the late 70's in Elk Grove Village, Illinois. We hung out with Rob Finn, Chris Roth, Molly Belt, Serena and Trina Deccicio. It is wonderful to find you again and to hear your amazing sound. You truly have a gift.

[dreubanks]

no joke!!!!

[scottfg]

Looks like a Selmer 80J he's playin' like Gilbert Castellanos

[TheIzzysteve]

This dude is a beast!

[JazzVideoGuy]

@TheIzzysteve You got that right!

[TheIzzysteve]

@JazzVideoGuy I actually got to meet Tim Warfield (super guy, by the way), whose album One For Shirley featured him.

[JazzVideoGuy]

@TheIzzysteve Cool. Tim's a super guy, and a super player.

[TheIzzysteve]

@JazzVideoGuy Oh yeah!!

[willy1986tralara]

fantastico... realmente le arde la trompeta!!!

[JazzVideoGuy]

@willy1986tralara Viva the trumpet kings

[TheNewBassMan]

The bassist is Michael Bowie and he really swings.

[AnAmericanComposer]

the Penn Intemediate Jazz Band is so lucky...we're playing backups with TS in Chicago. Wow.

[JazzVideoGuy]

@AnAmericanComposer Wish I was at that gig!

[tykleiman]

@AnAmericanComposer Last year I was in the Penn Intermediate Jazz Band. Unfortunately, I am not able to be in any jazz class this year due to schedule conflicts. But I will be going to the concert on November 18th. Stafford will also be playing with the IU Jazz band and the Penn Advanced Jazz Band.

[Freddymusician]

This Bass players got the :"hump" thumbs up if you agree

[Danro05]

I've heard terell play many times, even played for him at a festival at temple once, and I can confidently say that he is truly one of the most underated players today. talk about air speed. the man could play haydn through a straw

[saxforth]

@Danro05 I don't know about "underrated"-everyone I know who's herad him play thinks he's one of the best alive. His emboucher is also a classic example of what works rather than what it's supposed to look like-he says to play where your "whistle" is. Obviously, he's correct!!! Man, what a sound.

[Tinyjb0]

i dont think he needs a microphone.

[TheSBoy3]

is that a silver monette mouthpiece!?

[Shawnieboy33]

@TheSBoy3 Nope. I've had the pleasure of meeting him. It's a custom made mouthpiece that Wynton Marsalis made him get lol.

[FandKProductionz]

His Trumpet Looks Weightless .
