Check out these
Denise Reis clips. Here is another or her playing
Miss Celie's Blues. Plays some nice chords also.
Later,
That's some awesome stuff, Danny ... the first one, I believe, is lips... not sure about the second one, though! LOL
Cheers,
Mike
On the first tune, it's all lips. There's even a simulated lips-based harmon mute solo at 1:20. For the rest, she's got that Herb Alpert slightly-flat thing down, although she almost gets the timbre of a cup mute as she starts Pink Panther. Very interesting.
On the Letterman track, it's all lips until the studio trumpeter joins her at the one minute mark. She's got a nice Louis style vibrato here.
Thanks for sharing this, Danny. She's very talented.
Everything old is new again.
Cool stuff.

I occasionally make sounds like that - but coming from another place. !!!
It does surprise you at first when you don't realize she is making the trumpet sound vocally.
