2 Trumpets is an album by trumpeters Art Farmer and Donald Byrd, recorded in 1956 and released on the Prestige label. They are joined by Jackie McLean in the front line for the uptempo pieces but have a ballad quartet track apiece.[2]
In a contemporaneous review, Billboard was positive, commenting that it is a "very enjoyable LP for the modern jazz customer".[6] In Ron Wynn's review for Allmusic, he stated: "This nice date puts two top trumpets together".[3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz gave it two-and-a-half stars out of four, describing it as "capable but routine".[4]
