Traveling The World With a Pocket Trumpet

Bob Coscuello

Trumpeter, vocalist, and composer Ginetta M is the leader of the jazzy, funky New York City based Ginetta's Vendetta.  She also records under the moniker Ginetta M.  On this edition of GLT Jazz Next, Ginetta tells Jon Norton her latest album as Ginetta M is Little Big Horn. She says the title is a nod to Native American culture, and a reference to her instrument of choice, the "pocket" trumpet.

Jon Norton is the program director at WGLT and WCBU. He also is host of All Things Considered every weekday.
