Allen Vizzutti plays in an effortless manner with superb technique, flexability, range, accuracy, and sound quality. He is up there with Doc Severinsen and Al Hirt, among others.

@ssmith1226 The close-ups of his face show how little needs to change in order access all registers. Also, I could have posted this in https://trumpetboards.com/topic/1427/transcribe-this-one?_=1699386841517 .

Fast Forward, below to Glenn Zottola in 1988 on Tenor Sax and Trumpet. His biography can be found immediately below the video.
As an aside, I have the privilege of recently meeting and taking lessons from Glen Zottola’s brother, Bob Zottola who also is a highly accomplished professional Trumpet Player. His biography can be found below Glenn Zottola’s.

Biography- Glenn Zottola
Glenn Paul Zottola, (born April 28, 1947) is an American jazz trumpeter and saxophonist.
He is known for his work with Lionel Hampton, Benny Goodman, and Bob Wilber, and has accompanied a broad range of vocalists, including Mel Tormé, Frank Sinatra, Peggy Lee, Ella Fitzgerald, and Joe Williams. He has recorded over 50 albums and, in 1988, was a featured soloist at the 50th anniversary of Benny Goodman's Carnegie Hall Concert. In 1995, Zottola was bandleader on the Suzanne Somers daytime TV talk show at Universal Studios.

Biography- Bob Zottola
Jazz trumpeter Bob Zottola played with them all. And all, in this case, means legends like Benny Goodman, Peggy Lee, Frank Sinatra, Charlie Barnet, Gerry Mulligan, Maynard Ferguson, Chick Corea and dozens of others.

With those credits, he could easily be resting on his laurels, With the emphasis on the word "rest." When Zottola moved to Southwest Florida in 2004 after completing a 16- year run in the Broadway orchestra of "Les Miserables" In New York City, he was certainly entitled to a break.

But he's done anything but slow down. He plays seven nights per week - and a few afternoons as well - and, in the process, is contributing to make Naples a jazz town. Only a world-class player could do that.

Leonid and Friends, a Russian based band, has been best known to being a cover band, started with Chicago, Earth Wind and Fire and Blood Sweat and Tears, but they just came out with their first original called "Speck of Dust". Just blows me away:

Been following Leonid and Friends for a couple of years now. Whether it's their existing material or "Speck of dust", they just impress mightily. If only they could/would tour "Down under".
