Dear Marek:

I am one of Wycliffe Gordon's biggest fans. When you get time, (20  
minutes) check him out with Joe Alessi (principal TB with the NY  
Philharmonic, and the Juilliard Trombone Choir at:  (DJML Trombonists  
may also wish to check this out)

and

or if that's enough jazzy classical for you, see him with Vince  
Giordano, Bob Wilber, and friends on "Sweet Georgia Brown", including  
his plunger mute out chorus at the 3 minute 48 second mark. I  
guarantee you won't forget this one,

Lots more WG videos on You Tube. The man can flat out play.

Cheers,
