Biography
Many mainstream jazz listeners initial skilled this trumpeter within the framework of pianist and composer Chick Corea’s extended versions from the Go back to Forever combo when a rhythm section that had already transitioned from bossa nova to large fusion was augmented by way of a little brass section, representing something of the florid garden story for the leader’s Latin jazz, flamenco, and also downright Andalusian leanings. John Thomas was nearing his second 10 years within the music business at the idea of taking part in this relatively typical music from the ’70s. He started touring and documenting with Kansas Town jazz legend Count number Basie in the next half of the ’50s. His skill at spitting out high records has also resulted in big band work for leaders like the dependable Woody Herman as well as the innovative Maria Schneider, amongst others. The trumpeter shouldn’t be puzzled with a very much old trombonist whose profession started within the ’20s. Thomas in addition has played on an incredible number of tv and film ratings, notably the sizzling tempo and blues soundtrack to Academy Award-winning biopic Ray. As an educator he offers carried out workshops internationally and it has written content articles on business lead trumpet for the International Trumpet Guild as well as the Jazz Teachers Journal.
