It seems that daerp agrees with me about Bob Brookmeyer artistic values as being a pianist and a trombonist at the same time.That's great,and I love it.I love Bob's musical compositions for big band and other musical units.Praise the LORD.

Yeah. Bob Brookmeyer plays piano, but he is a valve trombonist and one of the great composers of our time.
