60. The Broadway Trumpeter - Paul Baron, Trumpet

Paul Baron has had a career in both theatre and in commercial recordings, including the first national tours of Evita, Cats, The Full Monty, In the Heights, Spamalot, and currently Frozen.  He is also the author of multiple books including The Broadway Trumpeter and the upcoming follow-up of Volume 2 (coming later this Fall).  This series is a comprehensive collection of actual trumpet book excerpts from the most famous shows ever, along with Paul's thoughts on preparation.  If you are a trumpeter, this book and our discussion is invaluable, but many of our talking points apply to all pit instrumentalists.  You can find out more about Paul at http://www.paulbaron.net/ .
