Allen Vizzutti, Part 1: Virtuoso Trumpet Performer, Composer and Teacher
Allen Vizzutti is known worldwide as a phenomenal trumpet player and soloist. But he is equally at home as a teacher and composer, and over the course of our conversation we talk about all of these creative areas of his life. I’ve known Allen for a great many years and have always been impressed not only with his playing, but also with his humility... in addition, of course, to his great sense of humor.In Part 1 of our conversation, we talk about Allen’s beginnings as a trumpet player, his very strange audition tape for the Eastman School of Music, and then move on to his concepts of teaching.Would you like more inspirational stories, suggestions, insights, and a place to continue the conversations with other listeners?
