I have known Ray Alexander for over 6 years. We first performed together for a concert
tour with Harry Connick Jr.. Since then I have worked with Ray for The Temptations
and the 4 Tops. Ray has always been one of my favorite trumpeters to work with, as
he is easy to blend with in the section, whether he plays lead or section trumpet. Ray is
a master at covering "the styles" correctly using plenty of finesse.

Ray's career as a trumpet leader and sideman has embraced an extraordinary diversity of
musical styles and genres, yet he uses his experiences from the bandstand to teach a new
generation about the art of playing the trumpet.

Ray Alexander is a proven commodity in the music world and the world of brass
playing. His vast knowledge of the music business, let alone his capabilities on the
trumpet, make for an idyllic teaching and learning experience. All serious musicians and
brass players should jump at the opportunity to study with Ray.

I am very fortunate to have spent the last thirty seven years playing the trumpet for a
living. During this period of time, I have had the opportunity to perform with some
wonderful musicians. Ray Alexander is one of the best. He is one of the most
professional and artistic musicians I have known. Ray is a real stylist. As a lead
trumpet player, he has earned the right way to play music in several styles and this is
rare in today's commercial music scene. When it comes to Motown, rock & roll and
blues, Ray is the man! I always look forward to working with Ray because he plays
with style and good taste, and always gets a beautiful sound. And to top it all off, he is a
nice person and lifelong friend.
