Doc’s Corners: 8th Wonder of the World

At 91 years old, Doc Severinsen displays a control, power and musical energy that are simply beyond comprehension for most players.  Here is some video I took from the I.T.G. Cancer Blows rehearsal in San Antonio last year.  There is a lot to unpack, but I believe there is a career to be had in understanding what is really going on in those corners.  Listen, watch, and learn.  Doc figured it out for you.
