Hopeing someone knows of some brass music. Preferably trumpet and or trombone. CD. Also preferably high rez and good quality.

You can start with Miles Davis...

I do have some of him

Check out trombonist Wycliffe Gordon and if you get a chance to see him live don't miss it! Anything by Clifford Brown is worth checking out too. For a lesson on ensemble playing try this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS-NponTvYw (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS-NponTvYw). I could go on about jazz for a long time but one last (Jazz) recommendation is Paolo Fresu: Carla Bley The Lost Chords find Paolo Fresu. Check Fresu out at an NPR Tiny Desk concert :http://www.npr.org/event/music/178421346/omar-sosa-paolo-fresu-tiny-desk-concert?autoplay=true (http://www.npr.org/event/music/178421346/omar-sosa-paolo-fresu-tiny-desk-concert?autoplay=true)
To hear the real power of multiple brass instruments listen to the Eastman Wind Ensemble conducted by Frederick Fennell on the Mercury Living Presence release"British and American Band Classics" , specifically track 7, William Walton's "Crown Imperial".

This Rusty Dedrick album was recommended by LFF on headfi several years ago. It's dirt cheap and a total gem imo: http://www.amazon.com/Salute-Bunny-Berigan-Dedrick-All-Stars/dp/B0000001BU/ref=ntt_mus_ep_dpi_1

Try Bachs BWV 249 the natural trumpets will blow u away. And u get a music masterpiece to boot.

Being British seeing brass band music had my thoughts turn to the real thing. Perhaps see this to see what I mean.

Yes this type of band was often a colliery band but not all of them. For me it's in the family and my father played in a similar "silver" band as most are now, silver plated brass rather than cheaper basic brass instruments, which started out as a church band. Band contests were all over the country and fiercely contested as the film shows. Grimely colliery on the film but actually Grimethorpe Colliery Band.
Try Black Dyke (Mills) band as an example, See You tube. Brighouse & Rastrick, etc

Yes I'm promoting this style of music, it's very under rated.

Didn't realise there was a content limit so adding these.
Wynton Marsalis covers a lot of ground and for interesting jazz try
Nils Petter Molvaer - trumpet
Nils Langren - trombone (Wolfgang Haffner with the NDR Big Band)
John Fedchock - trombone

If you're interested in some progressive New Orleans brass band tunes, try Trombone Shorty's (Troy Andrews) stuff. His band is Orleans Avenue, and he calls their music super funk. You can also see him play on the HBO series Treme. Have fun.

I bet you've already heard of The Chicago Transit Authority.

Thanks for all the suggestions will check these out

Reap, yes I have

How about Jay and the Americans? And maybe give this one a try: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hwiCkU73NA

Not bad!

Late addition, just saw this thread.
Not your normal Brass compositions but amazing performances and dynamics try the Mercury Living Presence CD "Screamers" Circus Marches, Frederick Fennell and the Eastman Wind Ensemble. Thunder and Blazes is just stunning. One of my work colleagues is a very good trombonist and this recording left him speechless.
For some quick brass entertainment, check out on YouTube
" Mnozil Brass" . Live theatrical brass virtuosos. "Lonely Boy" is hilarious. They hail from Austria and occasionally tour. My afore mentioned colleague saw them last year at Sydney Opera House and still raves about them.If you appreciate supreme musicianship,flawless performance ,humour and of course Brass keep your eye out for one of their tours

Awesome!

That's a clever interpretation. I wonder if they do a V-twin trombone ? :)
I might get the Sportster out this weekend, looks like nice riding weather ahead.

Presavation Hall Hot 4 with Duke Dejan
-
Since Trombone Shorty has already been mentioned, try Bones Apart (Carol Jarvis) and Badbone & Co.(Dennis Rollins). Look up the Latzsch Trombone Festival.
-
Look into Chris Botti.
-
Clifford Brown and Wynton Marsalis have already been mentioned.
Freddie Hubbard deserves a listen.

Just so everybody know. The OP AUDIOPHILEBOSS has not been on the site for a long time. He is now listed as "Guest" and hasn't responded since 2/9/14.
He may not even be lurking. Are you out there?
