Members' Choice and Business Meeting
After a brief business meeting, we'll be listening to members' choices of their favorite tunes featuring plunger-muted trumpet. James "Bubber" Miley introduced this style of playing to the Ellington orchestra in 1926, and successive trumpeters kept it a key element from then on.
(Make a note: The evening's events begin earlier than usual, at 7:00PM.)
And please note: All of this season's TDES meetings will be held on Wednesday evenings.
