About the event
Musical ambassador and interpreter of “America’s” music, Wycliffe Gordon is one of the world’s most renowned and award-winning jazz trombonists touring today. His signature sound and mastery of the plunger mute have helped solidify his impressive musical career. Gordon’s CD “Hello, Pops: A Tribute to Louis Armstrong” pays homage to his personal musical hero, and includes songs that were favorites of Armstrong’s, in addition to several originals composed by Gordon, including “Pops for President” and “Meatball 123” (where Gordon is on tuba, trombone and trumpet). He is a Yamaha Performing Artist and has his own line of Wycliffe Gordon Pro Signature Mouthpieces by Pickett Brass.
