PROFESSOR OF TRUMPET AND FUGLEHORN Not a clue Whats the Question X Cindy Derek Watkins has played in James Lasts's big band, and I also know that he played a lot of trumpet/flugel in the various James Bond filmscores. You'll hear him in 'Goldfinger', playing very high immediately after the enunciation of the word 'Goldfinger' by the pitchless and time-signature challenged person who was employed to bawl this song.
Along with people like James Watson, Crispian Steele-Perkins, Henry Lowther, he is one of the UKs leading trumpeters. I seem to have heard that he now designes bespoke trumpets to suit the style of individual players, although this seems to be a bit of a cheat to me. |
