Born Randal
Edward "Randy" Brecker
November 27,
1945 in
Cheltenham (Pennsylvania), Randy Brecker is is an
American trumpeter[1] and flugelhornist.
Randy Brecker is essentially a fine hard bop trumpet soloist, but one versatile enough to fit into nearly any setting, including pop and funk bands, and jazz fusion. He studied classical trumpet and attended
Indiana University. Brecker was with
Blood, Sweat & Tears in
1967, and spent 1968-1969 playing with
Horace Silver's quintet. He also appeared with the big bands of
Clark Terry,
Duke Pearson,
Frank Foster, and the
Thad Jones/
Mel Lewis Orchestra.
After playing with the early fusion group
Dreams in
1969, he worked with
Larry Coryell's
Eleventh House and
Billy Cobham, in addition to keeping very busy with studio work. He teamed up with his brother, the late Michael Brecker (1949-2007), in the popular funk-oriented
Brecker Brothers (1974-1979); in the '80s he often collaborated with his wife, pianist/vocalist Eliane Elias; and in the '90s he toured with the reunited Brecker Brothers. But Randy Brecker still sounds best when in a freewheeling bebop combo, and fortunately he occasionally records in that type of spontaneous setting. As a solo artist, Brecker has released numerous outstanding albums, including his 1969 debut
Score,
1987's In the
Idiom with saxophonist
Joe Henderson and bassist
Ron Carter,
1995's contemporary and Brazilian jazz-infused
Into the Sun,
2003's ode to
Manhattan 34th N Lex, and 2008's
Randy in Brasil. In
2011, Brecker was featured with the
DR Big Band and the
Danish National Chamber Orchestra on the
album The
Jazz Ballad Songbook. Also that year, Brecker appeared on saxophonist
Richard Cole's
Inner Mission album. In
2013, Brecker released The Brecker Brothers Band
Reunion, which featured various players who performed with the Brecker Brothers over the years. Two years later, he delivered, RandyPOP!, a concert album showcasing reworked versions
of pop songs Brecker had originally appeared throughout his career, including cuts by
Donald Fagen,
Todd Rundgren,
Paul Simon, and more.
