Hitz discusses navigating the pandemic while helping his first-grade son Nicholas in online Spanish immersion, his wife’s work as a middle school band director, and how stepping off the road after 14 years in Boston Brass led him to be a stay-at-home dad and later refocus creatively. He recounts how he joined Boston Brass via an emergency sub gig arranged through Sam Palafian, reflects on early musical immersion at Tanglewood, youth orchestra experiences, and meeting mentors including Palafian and Arnold Jacobs. He describes his passion for Phish (201 concerts) and parallels between musical intensity across genres. Hitz explains how his network and desire to keep collaborating with Lance LaDuke led to The Brass Junkies and later The Entrepreneurial Musician (TEM), and how business learning grew from social media and arts marketing interests while he remains selective about performing. 00:00 Welcome Back Updates 00:43 Sponsors And Supporters 01:43 Interview Kickoff Praise 05:24 Life In The Pandemic 06:23 Stay At Home Dad Shift 10:55 Spanish And Early Listening 12:10 Joining Boston Brass 16:48 Youth Orchestra Pressure 28:12 High School Band Reality 30:51 Meeting Your Heroes 33:55 Why Phish Matters 39:08 Phish Shows And Tickets 40:47 Empire Brass Origins 41:41 Meeting Sam Pilafian 42:36 Empire Brass Seminar 44:19 Inside Open Rehearsals 45:26 Rolf Intensity Story 47:32 Chamber Music Dynamics 50:25 Empire Performance Fire 51:12 Mnozil Brass Magic 53:22 Touring Life Reflections 54:53 Starting Brass Junkies 01:09:38 TEM Business Origins 01:14:02 Playing Versus Podcasting 01:20:27 Wrapping Up and Thanksno01:21:29HFL165 Andrew Hitzfullhttps://soundcloud.com/user-777277483/gene-dinapoli-audiotag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2370894260Wed, 12 Aug 2026 01:00:39 GMTHFL171 Gene Dinapoli Interviewed October 9, 2020 Interview released August 11, 2026no01:02:16HFL171 Gene Dinapolifullhttps://soundcloud.com/user-777277483/hfl-157-kenny-ramptontag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2257834589Sat, 07 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMTKenny Rampton: Jazz at Lincoln Center, Sesame Street & Finding Positivity Through Music Join us for an intimate conversation with Kenny Rampton, trumpet player with Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and Sesame Street.

Brooks describes decades as a full-time musician, forming his own swing band modeled on the Benny Goodman Quartet/Sextet, and leading from behind the drum kit, praising players like Kenny McGee. The discussion centers on Gene Krupa as Brooks’s lifelong hero: Krupa’s melodic, contextual drumming, minimalist setup, innovations in feel, technique, and drum sizes, and his long Slingerland endorsement. Brooks outlines Krupa’s career arc (Goodman 1934–1938; own band success in 1941 with Roy Eldridge and Anita O’Day), the 1943 frame-up drug bust and its lasting impact, and later work with Norman Granz’s Jazz at the Philharmonic and international touring.

Stripling shares how he stays sharp through changing routines, why “routine” can become the enemy of growth, and what decades on the road with the Count Basie Orchestra, Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, and the Boston Pops taught him about sound, showmanship, and service.You’ll discover: The practice philosophy he uses to keep his playing evolving, from flow studies and etudes to rebuilding his warmup so it never goes stale The Vinny Di Martino lessons that changed how he thinks about time, accountability, leadership, and actually delivering on stage Why great musicians must meet audiences where they are, whether that means a concert hall, a living room, Facebook Live, or a livestreamed season The unforgettable stories behind playing with legends like Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong tributes, and John Williams Stripling also opens up about the cultural weight of music, the power of forgiveness, and why artists have a responsibility to lift people up when the world feels fractured. It is a wide-ranging conversation that moves from trumpet technique to race, tradition, audience connection, and the future of orchestras in a post-COVID world.Byron Stripling is the artistic director and conductor of the Columbus Jazz Orchestra and the newly appointed principal pops conductor of the Pittsburgh Symphony. He is known for his electrifying trumpet playing, deep jazz lineage, and acclaimed tributes to Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald.Essential listening if you want inspiration, practical musicianship, and a masterclass in how great artists turn talent into impact.

Shannon explains how “Empress” reflects taking ownership of her life and encouraging others to “own their crown,” and shares how music led her to dance, composing on piano from age four, singing publicly for the first time at 19, and creating as a “closeted” singer-songwriter during her ballet years. She discusses the physical and mental demands of ballet, career pressures around body image, how a raw foods diet helped her health and longevity, and the value of visualization, mentorship, and positive leadership from choreographers like William Forsythe. Shannon previews new releases starting in November and mentions composing a symphony during COVID. 00:00 Interviews Return 00:54 Meet The Guest 02:24 Empress Stage Name Origin 02:24 Why Empress 06:44 Own Your Crown 10:28 Composing At Four 13:13 Ballet To Broadway 19:59 Nutcracker Origins 23:34 Body Image And Health 23:39 Ballet Career & Body Image 29:34 A Ballerina Day 37:25 Mental Game And Mentors 39:14 Muscle Memory Mastery 40:01 Mentors And The Village 41:00 Dance As Meditation 42:57 Broadway Transition 42:57 Ballerina To Broadway 49:13 Broadway Confidence Vs Ballet 52:15 Building The Empress Empire 52:27 Music Career as Empress 56:15 Favorite Ballet And Leadership 01:00:44 Rite Of Spring And Music 01:03:26 San Francisco Reality Check 01:06:41 Warm Farewell And Next Stepsno01:08:59HFL169 Empress Audiofullhttps://soundcloud.com/user-777277483/hfl-161-wayne-tanabetag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/2269720355Tue, 03 Mar 2026 02:01:00 GMTWayne Tanabe joins the podcast from outside Waco, Texas after leaving New York City during the COVID-19 shutdown, discussing how the pandemic affected musicians, venues, and safe in-person instrument work. He describes continuing Yamaha-related R&D from home while planning safety protocols for customer visits, including concerns about aerosols and sanitation when testing brass instruments. Tanabe explains misconceptions about brass airflow and shares demonstrations showing that brass playing produces less outgoing airflow than many assume, with flutes posing more concern than brass for room spread. He clarifies that he is not a trumpet player—he studied percussion at DePaul—and recounts formative experiences hearing major trumpet artists and being surrounded by Chicago-area musical icons. Tanabe outlines his path through repair training at Allied Repair (alongside Dave Monette), running a repair-focused business for 24 years, and pursuing technology-driven approaches such as cryogenic freezing, precision valve alignment, computer analysis with the University of Vienna, ultrasonic cleaning, and the patented Magnetic Dent Removal System using rare-earth magnets. He explains how educational writing and online participation under the name Brass Rx helped grow national demand for his specialized services. Tanabe details how his connections with Chicago Symphony players like John Hagstrom and Yamaha prototype work led to Yamaha opportunities, and he describes his philosophy of tailoring instrument response to individual players through reversible adjustments, careful listening, and shared vocabulary about sound and response. He and the host discuss examples of small changes producing major results, including mouthpiece clocking, and Tanabe explains how manufacturing, polishing, plating, and receiver tolerances can create “sweet spots.” He shares repair stories ranging from heavily damaged student instruments to working with historic and iconic instruments and musicians, including visits to the Louis Armstrong House and composer graves in Vienna. Bob Malone briefly joins late, noting his long Yamaha development history dating back to work on the 6310Z trumpet, and the conversation touches on Yamaha’s scale alongside its boutique craftsmanship and the success of the Chicago Artist/Xeno trumpets, before the recording ends amid audio-connection troubleshooting. 00:00 Wayne Tanabe Interview - Yamaha Brass Craftsman 01:32 Introduction 05:15 COVID-19 Impact on Music Industry 15:09 Wayne's Background as Percussionist 17:26 Starting Brass Rx Repair Business 26:25 Joining Yamaha 32:10 Working with Professional Musicians 35:35 The Art of Instrument Customization 01:05:25 Bob Malone Joins the Conversationno01:13:54HFL 161 Wayne Tanabefullhttps://soundcloud.com/user-777277483/hfl-7-marvin-perrytag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/631025616Mon, 03 Jun 2019 19:02:36 GMTChappy was with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra for 43 years and 41 of those were as Principal Trumpet!

They discuss publishing and distribution, including selling Balquihidder Music to Carl Fischer while keeping the Balquihidder imprint, moving eBooks onto Carl Fischer’s iTunes store, and placing Jean-Michel Pilc’s book It’s About Music for wider exposure. Rob explains how brass publishing relies on one-to-one promotion, social media, and high-profile performers, and why new repertoire struggles to displace standard works in education. He recounts founding Balquihidder in 1991, the origin of its name, expanding from his own excerpt materials to 180 titles, and his process-driven approach to preparing excerpts and piccolo trumpet parts by reducing tension and building range gradually. 00:00 Welcome Back Update 00:39 Sponsors And Support 01:24 Zoom Setup And Greetings 04:22 Interview Goals And Editing 06:16 Trust And Public Image 09:13 Selling To Carl Fischer 11:59 Books Worth Reading 14:24 Why New Music Struggles 21:38 Marketing And Word Of Mouth 25:23 Balquihidder Imprint Today 28:07 Origins Of Balquihidder 32:50 Naming And Early Growth 36:25 From Hobby To 180 Titles 38:31 Early Finale Struggles 40:31 Why Stick With Finale 40:57 Origins of Excerpt Books 42:03 Auditions and Musical Growth 46:45 Building Etudes for Students 48:54 Method Behind the Volumes 51:25 Context Beats Raw Chops 54:52 Practical Tools Approach 57:11 Piccolo Comeback at 70 01:02:20 Stepwise Practice Regimen 01:08:56 Air Management and Patience 01:10:40 Teachers and Growing Up 01:14:19 Closing Thanks and Farewellno01:14:43HFL 163 Rob Roy McGregor 2nd Interviewfullhttps://soundcloud.com/user-777277483/hfl146-mark-busellitag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/1212896653Wed, 09 Feb 2022 20:37:39 GMTThis is my interview with Mark Buselli, Professor of Jazz Studies at Ball State University.

He took the time to talk to and take pictures with every person that came in that week and gave them focused attention. You don’t get that from every artist! Doc is the real deal and is as enthusiastic about trumpet as he’s ever been. We also talked about his new CD which is a compilation of lost recordings from the mid 80’s. In talking about a certain track Doc had to pause and prepare himself to talk about it. I’ve never seen him so tenderhearted and vulnerable as he was during this part of the interview. We were both on the verge of tears as he talked about that piece of music. Hopefully, you’ll hear what I’m trying to describe.

I felt like I was getting pretty good at interviewing, but I stepped all over myself in this one all because, well, its Sergei! You’ll be glad to know I edited out a bunch of my drivel. Sergei is so laid back, but at the same time very intense and serious regarding his music. He provides some great insight into how he chooses repertoire, his practice sessions, and his working relationship with the amazing pianist Maria Meerovitch. His performance of Ad Absurdum at ITG was off the charts. Sergei pushes the boundaries of what is possible and makes it look so easy.
