The Doug Morton Songbook: Vol. 2

By Doug Morton

Discover the Depth of Doug Morton’s Modern Jazz Compositions

Doug Morton has chops to spare in both classical music (as the long-time principal trumpet player in the Santa Rosa Symphony) and jazz. In the latter genre, his compositions and arrangements have been recorded by the Electric Squeezebox Orchestra and Dave Scott's Trumpet Supergroup, among others. Styles range from straight-ahead bebop to Brazilian grooves to adventurous, free-wheeling compositions.

This Songbook is dedicated to Doug's long-time collaborator, Michael Lutin, and includes several of their songs, along with Doug's tunes that come more from the heart than the head. Check out the samples below for a taste of his unique composing skills!

The Doug Morton Songbook includes:

  • 20 of his best songs, direct from Doug's own lead sheets!
  • Digital format - whole book only, 70 pages - just $18
  • Access to streaming audio of the songs
