Philip & ruben,
I agree that great vocalists are wonderful to learn from. In my case, Louis Armstrong - his vocals, timing, phrasing, and ideas in general (to me) match or surpass his trumpet playing. Likewise, Jack Teagarden, Bing Crosby, etc. I listen to their vocals for direction.
Evan Christopher mentions in one of his "master class" videos that the early New Orleans clarinetists tried to mimic the various opera sounds, etc. I can hear that in the music of the era.
ruben - I'm embarrassed to admit that I had never heard of Karl Leister before, but I have loved what I've seen of his master classes so far. (I don't find him gruff at all.)
