Was he in a military band at one time??

I was there the start of the first year. Fall 93.

Fantastic interview! Thank you so much

Beautiful interview. Thanks a lot! ❤

Mark Gould makes the same observation about the modern trumpet sound compared to mid-century players: homogenization.

Is that Lenin behind Omar, on the screensaver?)

Sounds like a wonderful guy. Probably a great teacher.

Thoughtful questions & good patience in allowing Håkan time to give excellent answers.

Excellent interview. Lots of great references to follow up on: music, etudes, recordings, players. Only one small note: the breathing is heavy on your side of the mic.sounds like an air-handling system.

If you want to cite trumpet players who use the trumpet to express greater musical feeling and imagination than most, Mr. Hardenberger immediately comes to mind.

Hi Mark & Wayne, I've just paused this interview at the "Give it one" point to add my 50c's worth of minor fame. I was born in Liverpool UK & my first teacher lived at the back of Liverpool's football ground & I had my lessons on Saturday afternoons more often during a match & if Liverpool scored we would stop as we couldn't hear each other, I digress some, but, my teacher 10 years before taught Alan Downey who wrote "Give it One" as he later joined Maynard's Manchester band in the early 1970's, of course we got to meet year's later in London as I eventually made it as a pro. So, on a session with Alan I had to ask of MF Horn2 how he came about that chart, well, title-wise I dare not mention it's real origin meaning, but as to the composition he just said simply, I wanted an acceptable clash at 100 mph. I further asked Alan as I was also a closet arranger for his verbal permission to use. 15 years later I arranged it for a brass band to include another great session friend the late great Derek Watkins and he laid that track down in 3 hours with a central section on flugelhorn. Alan Downey never really got his full credit fame for this number, but proudly saying he's from Liverpool like The Beatles & me 🎺🎶🙏⚽

Wspaniała solistka w grze na trąbce.Cudowne zadęcie,pozwalające z niezwykłą lekkością wygrywać wysokie dzwięki.Gratulacje z Polski 🇵🇱

Michael's gift is likely conceptual, in so much as he 'didn't study in the American system, and so he avoided the 'pedantic', lumbering, plodding nature imparted to the state of play in the American trombone performance paradigm by Remington and his musically unhealthy and far reaching legacy. Only a few escaped, or rather...recovered professionally. There were/are more musically interesting things happening trombonisitically in Europe, come as a result of the 'lack' of a strangely dominant pedagogical and methodological approach that all too effectively overwrote unique instrumental exceptionalism. Remington's authorship of the American method made average players better, but...it also made 'possibly' great players...merely good also. Everyone succumbed to the system, no one stood out, so there was no development of identity such as went before him. This arrested the evolution of the technically 'musical' trombonist.

They don't know what Sultans of Swing was about 😂😅😂

Great interview.

I love that he talks about Bobby so much, such a great teacher.

Best teacher and human being! God Bless you Ron Modell 🙏

I second all the praise for Tim Hagans... I was fortunate enough to meet him when he was in the Kenton Orchestra and I was at one of the camps. He knew that I wanted to learn how to play jazz and was trying so he made me copies of all his practice tapes. They originally came from Dan Haerle and Jamie Aebersold, I think before the Aebersold records. I still have them and play along with them. A generous man, thank you so much Mr. Hagans!!

Really enjoyed this interview with legendary Jerry Hey.

No cc

Fantastic!

Thanks so much for your example of graciousness and humility, Phil. How I remember the infinitely unique quality of your singing horn, summer after summer at SLC. God bless !!

Tim Hagans, you’ve been a hero of mine for decades, and this is by far the deepest dive into your life and thinking I’ve ever been exposed to. As a third-generation trombonist (hold the jokes), I was raised on Kenton, Woody, Thad&Mel, and the last years of the touring big bands you describe so vividly. I was fortunate to get to know and play with people like Steve Campos, John Harner, Mary Fettig, Gary Hobbs, Mike Vax, Clay Jenkins, and other Kenton alums from my time in the Bay Area/NorCal, including Jim Widner camps he modeled on the Kenton camps. I especially remember the glow of Steve Campos as we carpooled and he described the cassette trading and mix tapes you guys would live on daily. What an incredible listening lab and discussion “class” you guys had by necessity for surviving life on the bus!!! Another vivid memory was meeting Marcus Printup as I described my love of your work with Bob Belden, and we dove into our mutual admiration for Sir Hagans, including finding out about your Freddie Hubbard project together. Thank you both so very much for sharing so generously in such detail that our “new” media affords. Continued creative groove onya!

The Adolph Herseth of the trombone!

I thought he was playing on Lotus gear 🤔

Love Tim.. he's amazing.

Tina Thing Helset mi trompetista favorita... Es el mejor sonido del mundo...

Very nice talk between you two, Mark and Omar! (Btw, I get to see and hear Oslo Phil. with Maekele often. At one concert he played cello)

I never got past the 1+ minute of pokey animated letters.

Tarr's intonation was the key. Great ear.

I was a friend & longtime student of Sam, and finally went to Tanglewood to study with Empire in the early 90's for 2 summers. Unbelievable musical experience/adventure, and being coached by Jeff was one of the true highlights. Great musician, teacher, and all around good guy. Thanks 👍

Almost inaudible !

What a woman! And an interview that allows her the space to express herself fully. Well done Sir.

How many wonderful musicians got their start at the HS of Music & Art? I was a 1958 graduate when Manny was three years old. I too was first trumpet in the Senior Orchestra but when on to be a professor of theory and composition.

Great interview. Mark, did you ever interview Ben Wright, trumpeter with BSO? Thanks.

Im a 62 yr old and carol is one of my major influences 3 yrs ago when i decided to start playing again , she is another trombone hero of mine added to my short list , Jack Teagarden being my number one. Carol has a wonderful tone and her range id love to have her range 😊

What a great experience to see/hear this interview.

She did not mention she studied with Claude Gordon

What a great interview! Two legends!

I have always loved her playing. She said that young people start playing the trumpet because of her, well I was not so young when I started the trumpet and she encouraged me to learn with the goal of reaching a professional level . When she talks about the C trumpet and the B flat trumpet, I completely agree with her. And one of the most important thing that comes out of what she shared is about enjoying making music and enjoying the moment.

A great interview. Sean Jones has some great comments about so many things. Bravo.!

Your intro rakes a really long time there, sir.

Very nice interview! Where is Mr. Tarkovi playing now? Thanks.

I'm enamored by such a humble individual who can create musical art with air & brass!! 🙂

A remarable lady.

Thanks for a wonderful series of interviews
