The “Maynard Ferguson Spirit Medley” is now available!

16 years ago, on August 23, 2006, jazz and trumpet icon Maynard Ferguson passed away. Today, we release this celebration of his music, joy and spirit, thru the tunes he played, with our own twists and treatments. It’s ironic and only fitting we release this 16 min EP today on this 16th anniversary!

So, here is Carl’s Band TËTI (Tribute to Evolutionary Trumpet Icons) and the highly anticipated and chop busting “Maynard Ferguson Spirit Medley”. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did rehearsing and recording this EP!

Long live the Spirit of the great Maynard Ferguson.

Introducing T.Ë.T.I

Introducing Carl Fischer & TËTI (Tribute to Evolutionary Trumpet Icons)

Carl Fischer & T.Ë.T.I. is a tribute to the greats that postured as more than just trumpet players, but also as innovators in the music, styles and social movements that surrounded them. These are the trumpet icons that are recognizable even by only their first name. The ones you can recognize from the first note or phrase. They helped to create, and give identity to, musical genres and even crossed between them. Louis, Diz, Miles, Maynard, and Freddie! These were the game changers that shaped not just the way trumpet was played, but also the music itself! T.Ë.T.I., or Tribute to Evolutionary Trumpet Icons, gives audiences a sonic and visual “look” into these master musicians, with compositions representing everything from their early developments to that which continues to influence even the trumpet greats of tomorrow.

A big thank you to Alan, the students and staff at UNT, and to everyone that helped to make this such a great day. We hope you enjoy the video because we certainly had a good time making it!

The CF Horn by Warburton Music Products

Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with some wonderful companies and have had some killer horns made for me. My arrival at Warburton Music Products is the result of a 25 year friendship with Terry Warburton. I’m honored to have this great partnership and humbled to have my initials on this great “CF Horn”! The “CF Horn” by Warburton is the culmination of more than 2 decades of research and development from my private collection of horns, with companies I’ve worked with throughout the years. Between the bore size, bell size, killer mouthpiece receiver, great balance and weight distribution, the “CF Horn” slots like no other while producing the biggest sound I have ever produced on a Bb trumpet. The “CF Horn” by Warburton is the best horn I’ve ever played.

From the Piano Man

“Carl is a gifted musician and someone I have had the pleasure of performing with over the past eight years. With the release of Adverse Times, Carl firms his place in a lineage of truly great trumpet players. From pop to hard-driving funk, from world flavors to inspired renditions of some of my own compositions, the album will appeal to a wide range of listeners and definitely should not be missed.”

– Billy Joel

“When the singer paid tribute to the late Ray Charles with “What a Wonderful World,” Joel turned it into a gorgeous duet with Baldwin’s Carl Fischer delivering Louis Armstrong’s trumpet parts.”

– Glenn Gamboa (Newsday, April 2017)

He’s assembled a team of musicians versatile (and talented) enough to give each song exactly what it requires, from the prog-rock keyboards of “The Entertainer” to the triple-saxophone attack that followed Joel’s piano break on “Movin’ Out” and Carl Fischer’s stellar flugelhorn and trumpet work on “Zanzibar.”
