My Favorite Musician - Claude Gnocchi - The CTS Group

Hello... I'm a Army veteran with a passion for sports photography, jazz music and all sorts of collectible items.  Currently retired, I spend most of my time searching for various forms of collectible items that may be obtained from almost any source.  Although I currently do not specialize in any particular category, I've done a lot of business in professional audio equipment, musical instruments, eBooks and most recently the promotion of an intructional CD/eBook on trumpet methodology called The "Total Embouchure". I've recently partnered with it's author, a semi-professional trumpet player and audio engineer, Claude Gnocchi, founder of the CTS Group in the promotion of his straight-ahead trumpet jazz music. The CTS Group is a project studio located in Fort Washington, MD. It's sole purpose is the memorialization and archiving the musical vision of its founder and to perpetuate the "straight ahead" jazz trumpet quartet/quintet tradition.

My goal is customer satisfaction.  I monitor my store/auctions daily to ensure that each question gets a promt and thorough response to assist the customer in making the correct decision on all items.  Thanks for taking a few minutes to read this page!
