Bandleader/trumpeter Carl Fischer has paved his unique path in the realm of music. Playing trumpet since the age of 5, he studied many genres of music. This diverse study has enabled him to navigate the worlds of jazz and pop, eventually landing him a spot in The Billy Joel band. With live performances on hold for many months during the pandemic, Fischer took that time to add even more to his toolbox by coming out with new virtual content.

“The Tuesday Night Hang with Carl Fischer” is an interactive, online live stream that allows fans to hang out, chat, listen and learn from Fischer and so far more than 50 guests from all aspects of the music business; giving viewers a unique behind the scenes perspective to the music and artists/bands they see on the stage and hear on their radio. The live stream has even grown into a featured show hosted by Fischer and airing multiple times on the Billy Joel Channel on SiriusXM satellite radio.

Carl Fischer now presents T.Ë.T.I. – a ‘Tribute to Evolutionary Trumpet Icons’. This is a tribute to the greats that postured as more than just trumpet players, but also as innovators in the music, styles, and social movements that surrounded them. These are the trumpet icons that are recognizable even by only their first name. The ones you can recognize from the first note or phrase. They helped to create, and give identity to, musical genres and even crossed between them. Louis, Dizzy, Miles, and Maynard! These were the game changers that shaped not just the way trumpet was played, but also the music itself! T.Ë.T.I., or Tribute to Evolutionary Trumpet Icons, gives audiences a sonic and visual live “look” into these master musicians, with compositions representing everything from their early developments to that which continues to influence the trumpet greats of tomorrow.
