Listening Sessions conducted by Sunil Sampat
The Lure of the Trumpet in Jazz

An NCPA Presentation

There is no shortage of intrigue and adventure in the history of the trumpet in jazz. One trumpet legend actually ran for US President, another claims to have “changed jazz about six times” and yet another has been a pioneer of the jazz sound. Jazz trumpet players also fancy themselves as vocalists.

Sunil Sampat will unravel these and other marvellous tales on this subject along with rare video footage from this aspect of jazz: the jazz trumpet.

Admission on a first-come-first-served basis.
NCPA Members will get preferential seating till 5.20 pm.
