Album Notes

Walter White grew up in a musical family near Detroit, Michigan and was inspired at an early age by the music of Louis Armstrong and Ludwig von Beethoven. Trained at Interlochen, Juilliard, the University of Miami, and The Banff Centre, his dynamic trumpet playing led him to work with artists as diverse as Maynard Ferguson, Bob James, Dave Holland, the Woody Herman Orchestra, the Mingus Big Band, and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. Walter's playing has graced the soundtracks of motion pictures and television, including network sit-coms 'Taxi' and the 'Cosby Show.' Walter is active as a performer, composer, arranger, and educator and is an avid archer. He frequently produces music for television and film and holds master classes at music schools around the globe. Walter White is a Yamaha Performing Artist and Clinician and plays Yamaha trumpets.

Great Improv Tool
author: Ray Charbonneau
I think this is one of the great improv Cds as well as a useful tool for chops building. The length of it also makes for a meditional CD, smooth and relaxing. His playing on the last track shows his abilities as well. Thanks!!!

Great Tool!
author: Kiku Collins
I had the pleasure of meeting and playing with Walter White a couple of years ago, and am thrilled to finally have purchased his long tone cd. I use long tones quite a bit and find them boring - or at least I did. What a simple but necessary concept to keep going and even make long tones interesting! Every trumpet player should have this cd and use it often. Thank you Walter! You rock!

Great for focussing sound
author: Rosie Turner
I love this CD as it helps me focus my sound at the start of the day, gets the cobwebs out, and is a relaxing warm down at the end of the day. It's also brilliant for breath control, and is just a really enjoyable, meditative way to practise long tones. Would highly recommend!

Exceeds Expectations
author: Paula Buermele
I play the flute and my flute teacher recommended this CD. It is GREAT! I love the support the music provides to my long tone practice and working to match Walter's tone is helping me improve my tone quality every day. It works beautifully for making this part of daily practice very enjoyable.
