@MrDfordan72093 Not pouncing on you, I'm just saying Joe Alessi (who La Rosa studied with) teaches his students not to use their wrist, which is quite contrary to most trombone professors. That's my explanation for that.

I've had the privilege of hearing this man play in recital live, and this is the genuine article. The man may very well be one of the best trombone players in the world (this is coming from a trombonist).

HOLY CRAP! You know, I laughed out loud a couple times with the apparent ease at which he attacked this solo. I am working on it now and only hope to perform it that well. Bravissimo !!!!

i only have one criticism, so please dont pounce on me. he does not use his wrist when he plays at all. it doesnt affect his performance, but it does make it harder on himself
I think that Arthur Pryor would be proud (-:

The "rushing" is called rubato. The composer (Arthur Pryor) was famous for his use of rubato when playing these solos. There is a CD of Pryor himself playing this, as well as many other of his solos. Listen to that, and then you'll know what the composer wanted :)
Sometimes music isn't about playing in strict time.
