He is my favorite trumpet player and I personally think he made a mistake when he stopped playing the trumpet and switched to the flugelhorn. He could play at any speed and had a great sound. I really like the albums he recorded in the late fifties (especially with H. Silver and G. Mulligan), before forming the Jazztet with B. Golson.

@josesanchez-os7zr ...Art still played the trumpet, flugelhorn and the flumpet.

@@brucescott4261 From 1961 until he began playing the Flumpet in the early 90s. Farmer recorded all his albums with the flugelhorn, with very few exceptions.
