The official web site of Maynard Ferguson
This web site was launched in 1996 as a college project at the
University of Northern Iowa by Maynard fan Matt Keller under the
title "The Maynard Ferguson Tribute Page". Over the next few years,
the site became well known to the Maynard Ferguson organization, and
the site was eventually adopted as the official site for Maynard
Ferguson. In 2006 the site moved to the maynardferguson.com domain
and launched an online store. Check out the forum!

Link to a great story in the Downbeat Archives
"The following discussion took place on a Sunday afternoon in
Count Basie's dressing room during the recent Jazz Supports the
Symphony concert at Chicago's Civic Opera House. The conversation
began while Basie and his band were on stage, and Jack Teagarden
(who also was featured at the concert), Maynard Ferguson (whose band
was playing in Chicago that night), and members of the Down Beat
staff waited for the bandleader."

Washington Post Review and Comments
"Maynard Ferguson's Horn Screamed With Vulgar Passion"
Is there something vulgar about a man in a bright jumpsuit,
a long scarf around his massive neck, screeching out a
tragic opera theme on a highly amplified trumpet?"

Maynard's Daughter Wilder Still
Collecting Stories
Back in December, Maynard's daughter Wilder asked fans to send
her stories of how Maynard and his music touched their lives.
She has received some wonderful stories and now wishes that she
had asked for photos to go with them. If you already gave your
story but could also provide a photo, get in touch with Wilder.
If you haven't told your story, but have a good one (even if you
don't have a photo), please do so. |
