S2:E9 - Michael Rodriguez

Michael Rodriguez is by far one of the most working jazz trumpet
players in the world.  He has played in bands led by Chick
Corea, Kenny Barron, Gonzalo Rubalcaba, and Charlie Haden among
others. He is also a first-call soloist and section player in
virtually every big band in New York including the Maria
Schneider Orchestra, the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra and many more.
Listen as he shares what he's learned from playing with the
masters, what he's worked on over the years to become rock-solid
on the instrument, and his advice for how to be a great section
trumpet player.
