5.0 out of 5 stars A must for every trombone player!, March 31, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Take the Lead: Trombone (Paperback)

I've had the opportunity to play in many trombone sections with some great lead players. However, Steve Wiest is the greatest lead player I've ever had the fortune to make music with! In addition, he is one of the most creative improvisation artists on that instrument. To top it all off, he is the most humble of human beings! So, how can one not buy/read this book!?! Get it!
