Mundua pikutara doala dioten berriak ahaztu nahian New York Hiriko museora joan naiz. Bertan zabaldu dute “New Yorkeko kantak” izeneko erakusketa interaktiboa. 1920 eta 2020 urteen artean hiriari idatzitako kantak datoz, ehundik gora abesti. New Yorken jaio eta gero munduan zehar barreiatu diren doinuak. Jazza, rapa, popa, rocka, Suzanne Vega, Velvet Underground, Jay Z eta Tito Puente, besteak beste. Zenbat jendek kantatu dion hiri honi, batzuk pozez, beste batzuk nahigabez. Museotik atera eta parkea oinez igaro dut. Hotz egiten duen arren, lakua dagoeneko ez dago izoztua. Jendea paseoan dabil, txanoekin eta bufandekin, bakoitzak bere ametsa egurasten. Zoriontsuak izango ote diren galdetu diot neure buruari. Ezen zaila baita hiri hau, badaki ematen baina kentzen ere bai. Eta horretan nenbilela, erdi goibel, New Yorken sortu berri den azken kanta entzun dut. Han ondoko zuhaitz batetik zetorren. Txori bat, enborra zulatzen, etxea bertan egiteko. Okila. Eta okilaren mokoaren danbolin erritmoak esan dit iratzartzeko, badatorrela udaberria, merezi duela borrokan jarraitzeak. Eta horrela, irribarretsu, itzuli naiz etxera.

This week, Andrew welcomes Dr. Sam (aka Flan F***er Page—yes, really) for a deep dive into _great_ musical collaborations. Along the way, they cover everything from Tito Puente to Sinead O'Connor, the genius of Bernard "Pretty" Purdie, and a story about Ginger Baker's olive farm that involves derelict barns, blind-drunk driving, and horses casually chilling indoors. Expect rants about Gary Boys (and how they ruined Ipswich's traffic flow), the horror of Elton John being "a bit too nice," and why Michael Jackson's legal team was probably modeled after Mr. Burns' army of lawyers. Oh, and the duo revisits Bowie collaborations—because sometimes even the Thin White Duke gets it wrong. Also discussed: - Why siblings harmonize better (scientifically proven during heated sibling arguments). - Prog metal that sounds like unicorns having a fistfight. - How to tell if you've ever accidentally given your partner a migraine with music. This episode is a messy, joyful, and slightly unhinged celebration of collaborations—because life's too short for solo acts. ### Riffs of the week #### Dr Sam's Riff - Tito Puente - Cua Cua (opening) #### Andrew's Riff - Cream - Toad (0:20) ### Dr Sam's track choices 1.

Warren Wolf's History of the Vibraphone pays tribute to 11 legendary vibe players, including Lionel Hampton, Gary Burton, and Dave Samuels, presenting a deep dive into the vibraphone's jazz legacy. Starting in classical music under his vibraphonist father's guidance, Wolf trained on vibraphone, marimba, xylophone, drums, and piano from a young age in Baltimore. Influenced by his dad's extensive jazz record collection and the local organ trio jazz scene, he eventually studied under Dave Samuels at Berklee, where he later taught. Wolf's rich blend of early classical rigor and exposure to jazz and R&B shaped his style, which now spans swing to fusion.  In History of the Vibraphone, Wolf performs each track as an homage to original artists, joined by saxophonist Tim Green, pianist Alex Brown, bassist Vicente Archer, and drummer Carroll “CV” Dashiell III. Standout selections like Gary Burton's “Captain Señor Mouse” and Samuels's “Spring High” reflect Wolf's influences and his mission to celebrate lesser-known vibes players. Currently a professor at Peabody Conservatory, Wolf remains dedicated to jazz education. Baltimore's thriving scene is central to his work, with venues like Keystone Korner and An Die Musik hosting vibrant jam sessions. Wolf's upcoming tour hints at a possible sequel to this record, potentially honoring Red Norvo, Tito Puente, and Mike Mainieri. ⁠https://njjs.org/⁠ https://www.warrenwolf.com/ History of the Vibraphone https://open.spotify.com/album/0raNJZzMHYyOr9R398NJ3E?si=CkIRJL2-Rm2iFwruCESL-Q

The playlist features Nicholas Britell, Robert Glasper; Jeff Beal; Poncho Sanchez, Tito Puente; Steve Lacy, Don Cherry; Freddie Hubbard; Kris Allen; The Jazz Passengers; and Stanley Clarke.

Frenette's love of music started at the age of 5 while playing the bongos and listening to records with his parents. Artists like Perez Perado, Tito Puente, Herb Albert, Johnny Cash and Tom Jones were constantly spinning on the record player. By the age of 10, Matt was learning his rudiments in a marching and concert band. Some of Matt's early influences include Mitch Mitchell, Ginger Baker, Keith Moon, Michael Shrieve, Danny Seraphine,Billy Cobham, and later influences include Manu Katche, Steve Gadd, and Richard Bailey. Frenette is a founding member of Streetheart and his legacy as the other half of one of rock's greatest rhythm sections is still a part of Canadian rock legend. Matt's fierce approach to every song and powerful grooves he created were a big part of the musical foundation that Streetheart built their unmistakable sound on in the early days. In 1979 Matthew left Streetheart to join Paul Dean's new band Loverboy. Originally, Matt Frenette played drums for a side-project band, Headpins while Bernie Aubin played drums for a fellow Vancouver band, the soon to be renamed Loverboy. But within months, Aubin and Frenette swapped bands, where each continues to play to the present Alongside fellow Loverboy founding members Mike Reno, Paul Dean, Doug Johnson, with Ken "Spider" Sinnaeve, Matt Frenette has been "Working for the Weekend" since forming in Calgary, Alberta over 36 years ago. Loverboy has sold more than 10 million albums, earning four multi-platinum plaques, including the four-million-selling "Get Lucky."

This week we take the time machine back thirty years to 1993, an exciting era when Latin Alternative acts like Los Fabulosos Cadillacs and Gustavo Cerati were finding a wider audience and veteran Salsa artists like Tito Puente and El Gran Combo continued to get their musical groove on!

Tito Puente was a legend of Latin jazz, salsa and mambo music — and a six-time Grammy Award winner. As Kaya Williams reports, his legacy lives on in his son, who's performing at the Wheeler Opera House in Aspen on Sunday.

My guest, Bobby Sanabria, is a 7 time Grammy nominee. He is noted drummer, percussionist, composer, arranger, conductor, producer, documentary filmmaker, bandleader...and most important to me, educator. He has played with some of the all time greats, including Dizzy Gillespie, Mongo Santamaria, Tito Puente, Celia Cruz, Ruben Blades, Randy Brecker, to named a few. He was named Percussionist of the Year in 2011 and 2013 by Jazz Journalist Association. He has a radio show in the New York area entitled, "Latin Jazz Cruise" on WBGO FM (wbgo.org). Simply a magnificent episode not to be missed! Produced, directed, edited and hosted by Stephen E Davis.

https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/drums-and-rums/id1503281559?uo=4This podcast was taped on 2/2/24 at Gamirey Studios. I never got the opportunity to see Tito Puente perform live, but I caught Tito Puente Jr at one of his shows put on by the Jazz Society of Palm Beach. Tito Jr. embodies his father's performance with the same energy while sharing the story of his father.  We got a chance to sit down at Gamirey Studios in Miami. He shared great stories about growing up the son of the Latin king, his dad's early music journey and the influence he had on not just Latin musicians, but all musicians. We also put him through, In Four Beats or Less:1. Who's on your Mt Rushmore of drummers?2. Favorite venue you've played?3. Traditional or match grip?4. 4. Which social media drummer do you follow?This might be up there on the top of all of the podcasts I've done.Also I want to give a shout out to fellow podcaster and musician Brad Brock for helping with the video and audio for this one.Check out Tito's links:https://tito-puente-jr.myshopify.com/collections/allhttps://www.facebook.com/TitoPuenteJrhttps://www.instagram.com/titopuentejrwww.youtube.com/titopuentejrhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/2ROkqvVDXj5JgmN6z2uFrM?si=u_XS1_r3RraU9TsVV410xwDon't forget to LIKE this video and SUBSCRIBE to our channelHELP SUPPORT the podcast.https://www.patreon.com/drumsandrums/postshttps://cash.app/$drumsandrumsCHECK out  https://www.drumsandrums.com/FOLLOW us :https://www.instagram.com/drumsandrumhttps://www.facebook.com/drumsandrums/https://www.tiktok.com/@drumsandrumshttps://twitter.com/drumsandrumsSupport the show

Tito Puente and the Timbales: Tito Puente, hailed as the “King” of Latin music, left an indelible mark on percussion. His signature instrument? The timbales—a pair of cylindrical drums with a distinct sound. Tito Puente's influence extended beyond Cuba, introducing timbales to audiences worldwide. Timbales Unveiled: What are they?Are played with the sticks and consist of two single-skinned, metal-shelled cylindrical-shaped drums. The "timbales" are actually a mutation of a drum that migrated originally out of India and Africa years ago in the shape of giant kettle drums that were strapped to the sides of camels, horses and elephants. Eventually this drum made its way to Europe and Spain, and had mutated and shaped to what is known today in Europe and the West as the, "Timpani" drums. Cuban music is a melting pot of African and Spanish (European) influences and cultures. The shells are made of either brass or steel and set on a stand. The larger timbale, called "hembra" (pronounced embrah), and the "cha cha" bell (smaller bell), are traditionally positioned to the left side of the "timbalero" (one who plays the timbales). The "macho" timbale (smaller drum), the "mambo" bell (larger bell), and the "cymbal" are traditionally positioned to the right of a right-handed player. "Cascara" literally means "shell" in Spanish, and the "paila" or cascara is the traditional pattern played by the timbalero player on the side of the macho timbale (smaller drum) It can also be played on the cymbal, cowbell or woodblock. In some cases, Cuban musicians will use the word "pailas" for the timbales and "cascara" for playing on the shell or sides of the drums. All patterns are based on the clave and emphasize the accents within the rhythm. Tito Puente's mastery of these drums significantly shaped Afro-Cuban music in America. Tito Puente Signature Series Timbales: In honor of this iconic musician, Latin Percussion (LP) created the Tito Puente Signature Series Timbales. Available in brass, bronze, or stainless steel, these timbales capture the essence of Puente's rhythm. Thunderous Beats: Puente's timbales produce a deep, complex tone with exceptional projection. Their 15-inch and 16-inch diameters, coupled with 10-inch extra-deep shells, create a sound that resonates like thunder. Legacy Lives On: Tito Puente's timbales continue to inspire percussionists globally. From the 1996 Olympic Games closing ceremonies in Atlanta to countless stages, these drums echo Puente's enduring legacy. So next time you hear the rhythmic heartbeat of timbales, remember the man who made them dance—the incomparable Tito Puente.Tune in for part 3 of celebrating the life and music of Tito Puente. Support the show

He passed away on June 1st 2000. Here's a glimpse into his remarkable journey and some of the things each day this week we'll dive into.Early Years: Tito Puente was born in New York City's Spanish Harlem to Puerto Rican parents. His father worked at a razorblade factory, and Tito initially took piano lessons. However, an ankle injury led him to switch to percussion, drawing inspiration from jazz drummer Gene Krupa. Puente's talent blossomed with his drumming lessons, and in the '40s he joined the Machito Orchestra when their drummer was drafted for World War II. This was his big break, and Puente played with them until he was also drafted into the Navy. After the war, Puente went to the Julliard School of Music on the G.I. Bill to study music and orchestration, and in 1948 he formed his own band and began developing his distinctive performance style.Career:  Tito Puente was known for his blending of Latin and jazz sounds, for placing percussion in the spotlight, and for celebrating the music with dancing and joy during his performances. His band became a regular sound at the Palladium Ballroom, where the Tito Puente Orchestra packed in the crowds and helped popularize mambo. Over the years he became known as "El Rey," the king of mambo music, and he collaborated with many other major performers, including Celia Cruz. Puente began recording with RCA Victor in the 1950s. He continued to record, collaborate, and perform for the next several decades. In the 1990s, he played himself in the movie, Mambo Kings, which helped drive a renewed awareness of his music. When he died at age 77, he was still regularly performing.Legacy: Tito Puente's influence transcends borders. His compositions continue to resonate, and his virtuosity lives on. Whether you're dancing to his beats or appreciating his melodies, Tito Puente's legacy has been recognized in many ways. He received five Grammy Awards during his lifetime, as well as a posthumous Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award; among other honors, he also received honorary degrees, presidential recognition, and the Key to New York City.Tune in tomorrow for part 2 of celebrating the life and music of Tito Puente.Support the show

#257: Today, we're saying goodbye to a space with a storied legacy in this city – the Conga Room. The Latin nightclub opened in 1998, and brought in artists ranging from Celia Cruz and Tito Puente to Maluma and Bad Bunny.  The club's star studded list of investors included Jennifer Lopez, Sheila E., comedian Paul Rodriguez, and actor Jimmy Smits.  This week, the Conga Room is closing its doors.  The legacy of the club will live on through a non-profit called Conga Kids, a program bringing music and dance of the African diaspora to classrooms across L.A. But it is still the end of an era. One of the Conga Room's original investors, Jimmy Smits, talked with me about the club's legacy.  

This week Christina Abreu drops in to discuss Cuban-American history, Cuban music, and the representation of Cubans in film. We explore the origins and characteristics of Cuban music, as well as the migration of Cubans to the United States in the 1950s. We also discuss the relationship between Cuban-Americans and other Latino groups, as well as the integration and segregation within Cuban-American communities. This is a fun podcast and deep dive into Cuban American history. I hope you dig it.About our guest:Christina Abreu is associate professor of history and director of the Center for Latino/Latin American Studies at Northern Illinois University. Her research focuses on the role of race, nationalism, and migration in the Cuban and Spanish Caribbean diasporic communities of the United States with a particular emphasis on popular culture.  Her first book, Rhythms of Race: Cuban Musicians and the Making of Cuban New York City and Miami, 1940-1960, examined the relationship between black and white Cuban musicians and the Cuban and broader Latinx communities of New York City and Miami in the 1940s and 1950s. In her second book, Patria over Profits: The Story of Afro-Cuban Boxing Champion Teófilo Stevenson, she offers a cultural history of the life and times of Afro-Cuban boxing champion Teófilo Stevenson, winner of three heavyweight boxing Olympic gold medals in 1972, 1976, and 1980. In detailing Stevenson's triumphs in the ring, another more complex and interconnected story emerges about revolutionary Cuba and the island's Afro-Caribbean connections, race and black athletic activism, Cuban exile culture and politics, and international sports celebrity. Patria over Profits is under contract with the Sport and Society series at the University of Illinois Press.

SynopsisThe Palladium Ballroom once stood at the corner of 53rd Street and Broadway in New York City. It opened on today's date in 1946, and in its heyday, was the mambo capital of the world, showcasing performances by Latin superstars like Tito Puente, Tito Rodríguez and Machito.The Palladium closed in 1966, but its dance floor and bandstand were re-created for the 1992 film The Mambo Kings, in which Puente plays himself.The spirit of the Palladium was also evoked in a more recent chamber work by Puerto Rican composer Dan Román. Fascinated by both the music of contemporary minimalist composers and the popular dance forms of Puerto Rico, he combines the two in his four-movement work Musica de Palladium for violin, viola, cello and piano.The work's final movement, “Sensacional,” is, according to Román, “a collage of aural images taken from mambos and other dance music of Machito, Tito Puente and Tito Rodríguez.”Musica de Palladium was written for the New World Trio and recorded by them, joined by violist Steve Larson.Music Played in Today's ProgramDan Román (b. 1974): ‘Musica de Palladium'; New World Trio (Annie Trepanier, vn; Carlynn Savot, vcl; Pi-Hsun Shih, p); Steve Larson, vla. innova CD 904

Con la orquesta "Melodías del 40" retomamos el pulso del "cha cha chá" en los atriles de las agrupaciones más destacadas de la segunda mitad de los años 50. A la "Melodías" de 1956 le ponían sabor y sentimiento dos grandes cantantes: René Álvarez y José Herrera. "Me voy pa Morón", un montuno original de este último, fue uno de los grandes exitos discográficos de la orquesta. Grabación donde sobresale por su virtuosismo: Miguel Barbón, conocido en el ambiente musical como "Brindis", en referencia al insigne violinista. La intensa bohemia de los últimos años 50, vinculada a la cultura semi subterránea de los clubes, nos trajo a La Lupe. Su temperamento explosivo le aseguró un sitio importante en la vorágine musical de los primeros años 60. Recordamos los inicios de su carrera escuchando al trío "Tropicuba", una intrascendente formación que completó la juvenil cantante junto a Yoyo y Tina, entre 1958 y principios de 1959. El desengaño amoroso que sufrió La Lupe con Yoyo cerró ese ciclo de su carrera para ponerle por delante otro camino. Como reza el viejo refrán: "no hay mal que por bien no venga" y, contra todo pronóstico, en pocos meses se convirtió en la revelación del club "La Red" del Vedado, acompañada por Homero Balboa al piano y Lacho Rivero en las percusiones. De ahí el salto a los discos gracias a la etiqueta RCA Víctor que al tiro le propició los arreglos y acompañamientos de los combos de Eddy Gaytán y Felipe Dulzaides. Etapa de profundos cambios en lo estético y formal en un país a punto de asumir cambios drásticos en lo social, económico y político. La Lupe entretanto fue parte indisoluble de aquel mundo de humo y neón que, aún teniendo sus días contados, seguía latiendo a lo largo y ancho de la isla a través de cientos de miles de clubes y cabarets. Antros que en su diversidad fueron únicos impulsando figuras determinantes, y diferentes entre sí, como Freddy, Doris de la Torre, o la Lupe. Inevitable en la banda sonora de aquel nuevo proyecto social que prometía cambiarlo todo. Un idilio transitorio al que le puso punto final el férreo control que comenzó a extenderse en todos los ámbitos de la sociedad hasta chocar frontalmente con el espíritu libre de la cantante. El exilio fue la única salida para una artista tan impredecible como la mismísima "Revolución". Recién llegada a los Estados Unidos su vínculo con los percusionistas Mongo Santamaría y Tito Puente fue decisivo para conquistar el aplauso de la colonia latina asentada en Nueva York, la ciudad de sus triunfos definitivos donde no paró hasta convertirse en "The Queen of Latín Soul". La señal de la radio independiente nos devuelve al gran Emilio Ramil. Conocido como "el Gardel Cubano" comenzó a hacerse notar a finales de los años 40. Por esa época la radio sostenía sus programaciones musicales con presentaciones "en vivo y en directo". El tango había conquistado el gusto popular de los años 30, principalmente con los filmes y discos del inmenso Gardel (acompañado por Razzano y otros guitarristas como Barbieri y Aguilar). Figuras como Agustín Magaldi, el dúo Gómez-Vila, o el trío "Irusta, Fugazot y De Mare", entre otros, también marcaron entonces los repertorios de cantantes e instrumentistas cubanos que sobresaldrían en la década siguiente. Recordamos hoy a Emilio Ramil, voz y memoria del Tango en Cuba. En la despedida algo de la vida y obra del prolífico compositor Jesús Guerra Zayas. En plena década del 40 su carpeta autoral cubrió, con especial énfasis, guarachas y montunos que, durante la llamada era de los conjuntos soneros, alcanzaron muchísima aceptación. "A mí qué", "Yo soy tiburón", "Bigote de Gato", "Esa si es cheque", "Dónde va María", "Ahí viene el tren" y "Un meneíto na má" son algunos de los títulos que nos permitirán resaltar su aporte a la difusión de la música popular cubana.

Welcome to Episode #112 of "The Other Side of the Bell", a podcast brought to you by Bob Reeves Brass. In this episode, John talks with Wayne Bergeron and Jeff Bunnell about their recently released album called "Homage" by the Los Angeles Trumpet Ensemble.  We hope you'll enjoy their conversation as well as the album. Join us at Dillon Music, November 9-11 for valve alignments and mouthpiece consultations. Email sales@dillonmusic to schedule an appointment! About the Los Angeles Trumpet Ensemble Album "Homage"  The recording scene in Los Angeles has a long history of great and highly versatile trumpet playing. For the most part, though, these trumpet players rarely get a chance to be featured. In 1957, Tutti Camarata arranged and produced a record called Tutti's Trumpets that featured some of the top session trumpet players in Los Angeles at that time. That was over 60 years ago. Wayne Bergeron and Jeff Bunnell started talking about doing another recording that would feature some of the current session trumpet players here in Los Angeles. Wayne suggested recording a trumpet ensemble CD to Jeff and they loved the idea and thought a choir of trumpets would work well. With that, the Los Angeles Trumpet Ensemble came into being. In choosing the music Jeff arranged for this CD, he wanted to pay tribute to some of the film composers who are part of the Los Angeles recording scene (and who write so well for the trumpet), and also pay tribute to some of the great trumpet players of the past and present.  Jerry Hey graciously wrote the arrangment for the last track, the iconic Al Jarreau tune "Roof Garden". Los Angeles Trumpet Ensemble Members Jeff Bunnell Wayne Bergeron Jon Lewis Dan Fornero Marissa Benedict Dan Rosenboom Rob Schaer Larry Hall Dan Savant About Wayne Bergeron Wayne Bergeron is enjoying a career as one of the most sought-after musicians in the world. Studio sessions, film dates, international touring, jazz concerts, guest appearances, and clinics keep him busy not only in his hometown of Los Angeles but worldwide. Born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1958, Bergeron came to California at age one. He originally started on French horn but switched to trumpet in seventh grade where he found a natural upper register ability. Bergeron credits his junior high and high school teachers, Ron Savitt and Bob Smith, for molding his talent into practical working skills. Bergeron first caught the ear of many when he landed the lead trumpet chair with Maynard Ferguson's band in 1986. Bergeron can be heard on Maynard's recordings of Body and Soul, Big Bop Nouveau, Brass Attitude, and The One and Only Maynard Ferguson.  Bergeron demonstrates daily why Maynard remarked, “Wayne is the most musical lead trumpet player I've had on my band.” As a sideman, Bergeron's list of recording credits reads like a “who's who” in contemporary jazz and pop, running the stylistic gamut from Ray Charles to Green Day. Other names include Katy Perry, Beyoncé, Barbra Streisand, Michael Buble, Indina Menzel, Leslie Oden Jr., Herb Alpert, The Jonas Brothers, Burt Bacharach, The Dirty Loops, Seth MacFarlane, Natalie Cole, Celine Dion, Seal, Diana Krall, Tito Puente, Christina Aguilera, Dianne Reeves, Michael Bolton, Earth Wind & Fire, The Pussy Cat Dolls, My Chemical Romance, The Mars Volta, Chicago, Rosemary Cloony, Diane Schuur, Barry Manilow, Lee Ann Womack, Lou Rawls, Eric Marienthal, Kenny G., and David Benoit. Bergeron has worked on over 500 TV & motion picture soundtracks. A partial list of film credits includes Red Notice, Turning Red, Soul, Bob's Burgers, Ford vs. Ferrari, Toy Story 4, Frozen 1 & 2, The Lion King (2019), The Secret Life of Pets, Wreck it Ralph 2, Crazy Rich Asians, Sing 1&2, Moana, Frozen 1 & 2, Get On Up, Toy Story 3, Monsters University, High School Musical 3, Get Smart, Superman Returns, The Simpson's Movie, Dreamgirls, Hairspray, Mission Impossible 3, Ice Age 2, Spiderman 1 & 2, Team America and South Park. Bergeron's featured trumpet solos can be heard on the motion pictures West Side Story (2021 Steven Spielberg), La La Land, Sing, The Incredibles 1 & 2, Rocky Balboa, The Secret Life of Pets 2, Rough Night, Jazzman's Blues, Vacation Friends, Ted 2, Minions, Minions 2:The Rise of Gru, Spies in Disguise, Jersey Boys, The Green Hornet, The Interview, Despicable Me 1, 2 & 3, Duplicity, Princess & the Frog, The Perfect Game,, Hey Arnold (the movie), The Rat Pack, Child Star, Aladdin King of Thieves and High Crimes and  many others. Numerous TV credits include Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards, SAG Awards, NBC, ESPN & TNT sports themes, American Idol (2001-02), Emmy Awards, Grammy Awards, Animaniacs Reboot, Family Guy, American Dad, Simpson's, Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse, The Cleveland Show, Green Eggs and Ham,  Jeopardy, America's Funniest Home Videos, Will and Grace, Phineas & Ferb, Emperor's New School, Mouse Works, Have a Laugh, House of Mouse, King of the Hill, Futurama, Buzz Lightyear, Hercules, and Hey Arnold. Bergeron's greatest love is playing lead in big bands. He has recorded and played with some of Los Angeles' most respected bands including Gordon Goodwin, Arturo Sandoval, Pat Williams, Sammy Nestico, Jack Sheldon, Chris Walden, Tom Kubis, John La Barbara, Bob Florence, Joey Sellers, Ray Anthony, Bill Watrous, Bob Curnow, and Quincy Jones. After being behind the scene for so many years, Bergeron stepped out on his own with his first solo effort, You Call This a Living?  This debut project earned him a Grammy nomination in 2004 for Best Large Jazz Ensemble, as well as rave reviews from fans and press worldwide. Bergeron's second CD, Plays Well With Others, released on the Concord Jazz label in 2007, was met with the same acclaim. Bergeron's most current (and personal favorite) CD, Full Circle, was released in January of 2016.  Bergeron performs various events for the Hollywood Bowl summer season. He has done guest appearances with the L.A. Philharmonic, The New York Philharmonic, Cleveland Orchestra, Dallas Symphony, Taiwan Symphony, and Tokyo Philharmonic. Bergeron is a National Artist for the Yamaha Corporation of America and is co-designer of the YTR-8335LA trumpet and YFH-8315G Flugelhorn. Bergeron also designed a series of trumpet mouthpieces with Gary Radtke of GR Technologies that are available through Bergeron's website. Bergeron was mentored by legends Uan Rasey, Bobby Shew, Warren Luening, Gary Grant, Rick Baptist, and George Graham. Bergeron hopes to inspire a new generation of young players and enjoys his work as a clinician and educator. “Nothing makes me feel more accomplished than hearing a young musician say that I inspired them or had a positive influence on their life. For me, that's the real payday.” Bergeron is currently on faculty at California State University Northridge. Perhaps Grammy winning composer and bandleader, Gordon Goodwin said it best, “Wayne is a once in a lifetime lead trumpet player.” About Jeff Bunnell Trumpeter Jeff Bunnell has enjoyed a successful career in many musically diverse settings.
