Tim Larkin: From Ella and James Brown to Game Audio

Tim Larkin: From Ella and James Brown to Game Audio

Trumpet player, composer, and sound designer Tim Larkin joins The Ultimate Trumpet Podcast for a conversation about building a life in music, from Bay Area gigs and recording sessions to performing with Ella Fitzgerald and James Brown.

  • Unforgettable moments from the bandstand, including being so moved by Ella's singing that he lowered his horn during rehearsal, and finding himself soloing beside James Brown after Brown put a microphone into his trumpet bell.
  • How persistence, networking, and preparation helped him establish himself as a professional musician.
  • Studying with Claude Gordon, and the remarkable story behind the Selmer CG trumpet he has played since college.
  • How his warm-up routine has evolved over the years.
  • An early recording-session story that shows how understanding both the trumpet and the recording process can turn a difficult assignment into a career opportunity.

  • Resources Mentioned in the podcast:
    • The Ultimate Warmup for Trumpet
    • The Ultimate Technical Study for Trumpet
    • The Ultimate Wedding Book for Trumpet
