I played trumpet in a brass band. Of course I love brass bands, but I also love small ensembles. I studied wind instrument repair at a technical college and tried my hand at playing in a big band, but I am still struggling to produce a jazz-like sound. I am a bit swamped, probably because I used to go to Disneyland regularly, and I go there once a month.
