There is a lining made famous in the old TV show Dragnet detective "the facts ma am. Just the facts." I do not know if Jack Webb was a musician or a teacher, but considering that the study of music is infinite, we'd better follow his advice.
I am in the "October" of my life and I think which finally understand a man down, the music and its conception of it. Asking questions and reading books or other literature on the topic has kind of search of satisfaction for me the "whys" of music. I've been practicing how to do this or that for years, but the "whys" can set the creative mind to take off, so no more "can not get any satisfaction ...." Since the infinite is deep for me, allows deal with man made music.
I have come to the conclusion that all musical instruments made by man must be in the range of human voice a little higher or lower which is fine if not, will become obsolete.
The human voice has remained the man made the land of surround music and the amazing things distance is reached or is on average only two and half octaves! That is the territory of Johnny Cash and Andrea Bucelli not he really likes to stretch, and made him famous. The voice human is a wonderful instrument, the king and queen of all!
The well-trained voice is fantastic, with its ability to achieve its full range of notes, like a diamond, with its multiple facets. The fantastic Australian guitarist Tommy Emmanuel has composed a beautiful piece for guitar titled "Angelina", but for the piece that hums in harmony with their finger picking and beauty. Check it out on Youtube.
My point is again the ultimate superiority of the human voice. Show me any instrumentalist, as good as it is, that can match the attractiveness of a Bucelli Andrea or her favorite, if he or she is really good you can fill a stadium! So the conclusion is that I like singing and Tommy Emmanuel to be my companion, Whaoo! That would be awesome!
The human voice has another great advantage. The power of the spoken word. A great speaker, much less a great singer has a powerful tool at their disposal. You can get emotionally. Listen again to the late Harry Chapin singing the composition his wife's "Cats in the Cradle" or "Roy Clarke Yesterday when I was young" These examples of the powerful favorite songs are not sung very often because the singer has a difficult time emotionally singing. That words are so powerful. If you are not affected have to pretend, I guarantee it!
Well, I've enjoyed of this, but it's time to start training the king. Hey, is required much discipline, but worth it! Thanks for reading.

Where can I find scores of blues horn section?
I need to find the score of the backup horn section for a lot of blues songs. More specifically, the parts of the trumpet. I do not need false books or sheets of lead.
I encourage you to learn to transcribe Ironically, some of her favorite blues songs may well have been played ably by a horn section whose reading skills were very poor or even nonexistent. Learning to transcribe can create pieces for you and the horns in the other section, too. Check the source panel below for a link to a code open (free) software that is useful for the transcription of so-called best practices, this program will allow the speed / slow pace without changing the key or change keys without changing the tempo. The transcript is a completely legal way to download (although analog LOL!) Provided they do not try to sell their transcripts without proper licensing. I've played in some situations where I had simply written blues rhythm patterns and was present until the horns to flesh out the harmonies, to my ears this is not very different from the horn section sound of a classic act of blues like BB King. Start honing your skills with the transcription model simple as possible; summary of the chord changes and determine what the smallest rhythmic subdivision (straight / ranged eighth, sixteenth, etc.) is used to help take some of the apparent randomness of the process. You can do it, Mal, please contact me by email if you want some help.
