Larry Wiseman has been in the trumpet world for a long time. He began playing at age 9, although he says that his first encounter was with his grandfather's old cornet at age 5. Now an accomplished player of more than 46 years, Larry has long since left the life of a professional musician, after a 20 year career. Classically trained at Georgia State University,at the age of 18, he auditioned for The Atlanta Symphony, and made the 6 finalists;even though he did not make the cut,he still played as an extra with the symphony several times, served as principal trumpet for the Emory Wind Ensemble, and played in back-up bands for many name acts; to name a few are Frankie Avalon,The Four Aces, Cab Calloway, The Righteous Brothers, The Jimmy Dorsey Band, The Glenn Miller Band, Helen O'Connell, Vaughn Monroe, Liberace, Brenda Lee, Peter Nero, The Supremes, and Ben Vereen, as well as being a studio musician for a number of years, playing on many radio & TV commercials. Presently, he is the bugler/trumpeter for his singer/songwriter wife Susan D. Wiseman, also known as The Tribute Lady. "Susan's music is so unique, and I am blessed to participate in her ministry to grieving and hurting people, and the honoring of those men and women who have lived and died to keep us safe and free, namely, the members of the military, police and fire departments," says Larry.
Larry's favorite style is jazz, but he can play proficiently in all genres.Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes
What equipment do you use?
Bach Stradivarius, Silver plated, 43 bellAnything else?
There are trumpet players in this world , and then there are more trumpet players, and it is amusing that many of them think that they are the best, or at least delusions of grandeur, wishing that he or she could be the best (it seems to be the trumpet player's unwritten creed); I personally think that I play well, BUT there are trumpeters in this world today that are so incredible , that I am not even worthy of carrying their case for them. I do what I do, and hope that you like what you hear. I definitely have not arrived; it will take a little more time; until then I will just keep having fun doing what I do.Cup Match Taps

Beautiful playing Larry, what a great tone you have, Star Spangled was my favourite you did a great job on all but that one was incredible. Keep up the good work friend.Larry, I AM SO PROUD of YOU!
Standing in front of you, as you played "The Star Spangled Banner" for the crowd at Shea Stadium ( New York Met's home game) last Friday...was one of the most incredible moments of my life!
I just LOVE you, SO much...and, no one deserves the all the applause, more than you!
You were wonderful!
I am SO blessed by YOU !
THANK YOU, for ALL you do...for ALL your support...and, of course, for ALL your love!
You're the love of my life, forever..."Margaret"
aka..."The Tribute Lady"
www.thetributelady.comLoved your interpretation of the SSB. I can tell LOTS of thought and practice went into it. You also have great tone! The ending for me, was a bit much, but then again, it's YOUR version. Ending on the high note with out all the extra notes is the one for leaving the crowd with "goosebumps"....Hey, not too many different ways to do echo taps, but yours is right on!

Larry, this is so beautiful, what great tone you have, and your high range is incredible, like Maynard Ferguson, way up there, loved it. I think it would be great to use trumpet for variation at games instead of vocalists all the time to do the Star-Spangled Banner. I enjoyed all your other songs here, you are a very talented player.
