Carol, What an immense musical pleasure to jam with you, Danni and Art. Words don't go high enough to describe your playing. I admire and appreciate the great technique you have to allow you to say all the creative melodies you so effortlessly improvise. If more of us played with the sensitivity, feel, and musical vocabulary you have, well then most of the trumpet stereotypes would die off. You are an inspiration and a great entertainer.

Keep tootin'

Hey Carol,

It's been years since I was lucky enough to play with you at the Women's Conference at TTU. I think Cara set that up.

You were on fire the whole night...tremendous solos - prodigious imagination - fearless soloing - resolute phrasing and phenomenal chops.

I loved your originals, too (most of the concert was your tunes.) Great writing, great changes. Had a blast playing on them.

BTW, if you have or ever do write a paper or book about how you allow your imagination, intuition and ear have total control and not relying on tired things that have been already been played, let me know, I'd be all over it. I would love an insight into your thought processes.

I know you're doing great...sure hope I have the pleasure of working with you again. I wish I could have played tenor instead of my ham-handed attempt at the piano.

I wish you continued luck,

Royce

PS. On I Fall In Love Too Easily, big ups to the pianist at 2:21. That rules.

Good hang last night. I've just added a link to your web site from mine - www.RickLawn.com. CU in a couple of weeks...I need to find a piano player!

Blast from the past! Pampa High School Band! Way to go!! Keep it coming!! Good luck!!

Found a nice one overlooking Herman Park. You'll love it. Pack your stuff and I'll be there around 6:30pm on Friday. And bring your trumpet.

Hello, stopping by to check out your site! Very cool! Sanyc and I like your logo!

Holy $%^&! How did I get on your site? Did I slip you a $20?

Very cool site, sister! As usual, you rock. Well, as much as a trumpet player can rock...

love your site. maybe you can teach me a thing or 2.

Hi Carol, My 1st time to visit your site! Magnifico!!! Maybe bec. we just came from NOLA and heard some fantastic jazz music in persona!!! Seems your music is getting you to places with smiles and adventures (hope, not mis-adv). I wish you the best experience in Philly. Hope to be able to see you at Cezzanne on your going away performance. Don't forget your friends here in Houston!!! especially in science group here at PTI, we may not be so musically inclined but sure we know how to appreciate good music. Sweet regards to N.

Hey! You might not remember me. I was part of the french group at the YJAMC last year, and saw that you're coming over to France in July! I'm looking forward to see you all again in France!
