Whichever one I happen to be listening to like right now its Freddie Hubbard whereas a few minutes ago it was George Coleman. Both are in the room with me as I listen to Herbie Hancock's Maiden Voyage album.
Saxaphone vs. Trumpet...Which do you prefer?
It’s not the first time I’ve thought about it, but it came up again last night as I was listening to Quintessence volume 2, Stan Getz and Chet Baker recorded live. (an amazing disc) I have to say that for myself, I prefer the saxophone because it seems capable of infinite textures and subtle shadings as well as eye opening dynamic shifts. Of course I love the trumpet too; especially in the hands of a player like Chet Baker.
