Art Farmer was an American jazz trumpeter and flugelhorn player, born on August 21, 1928 in Council Bluffs, Iowa. He played in the ORF Big Band from 1971 to 1977 and was known for his unique sound. Art Farmer's late career saw him exclusively playing the custom designed flumpet, a hybrid instrument combining qualities of both trumpet and flugelhorn. He passed away on October 4, 1999 in New York City.
Throughout his career, Art Farmer made significant contributions to the world of jazz music with his exceptional talent and versatility as a musician. His mastery of both the trumpet and flugelhorn allowed him to create a distinct sound that captivated audiences worldwide.
In addition to his solo work, Art Farmer also collaborated with various renowned artists and bands during his time with the ORF Big Band. His musicality and dedication earned him recognition as one of the most influential figures in jazz history.

Clifford Brown was an American jazz trumpet player, born on October 30, 1930 in Wilmington, Delaware. He was influenced by jazz legends Dizzy Gillespie and Fats Navarro. Throughout his career, he performed with renowned musicians such as Lionel Hampton, Art Blakey, Sarah Vaughan, and Dinah Washington. In collaboration with drummer Max Roach, Brown formed the Clifford Brown And Max Roach Quintet.

Tragically, in June 1956, while traveling from Philadelphia to Chicago for a performance, Brown and pianist Richie Powell were involved in a fatal car accident on the Pennsylvania Turnpike. The crash claimed their lives along with Nancy Powell's. Clifford Brown is laid to rest at Mt. Zion Cemetery in Wilmington.

Brown's exceptional talent earned him recognition early on; he won the Down Beat critics' poll for 'New Star of the Year' in 1954. Posthumously, he was honored by being inducted into the Down Beat 'Jazz Hall of Fame' in 1972 through the critics' poll.

American record producer, conductor, arranger, and artist Quincy Jones teams up with Clifford Brown and Art Farmer, both on trumpet, along with Swedish musicians to perform 10 tracks originally recorded in 1953 in Stockholm, Sweden. The album ‘Scuse These Bloos features original compositions by Quincy Jones such as ''Stockholm Sweetnin’'', the title track ''’Scuse These Bloos'', ''Pogo Stick'', next to jazz interpretations of ''Falling In Love With Love'' (from the Musical Comedy The Boys From Syracuse) written by Rodgers and Hart and more tracks.
