Win tickets to see Nicholas Payton & more at Six of Saturns

Multi-instrumentalist, composer and trumpet master, Nicholas Payton is one of the most important artists working and recording today. A virtuoso before he was out of high school, his talent and skills have earned him praise and accolades and ensured his place in musical history. Spanning a multitude of musical genres, Payton has composed and arranged, performed and recorded with his own groups in many settings, including solo, duo, trio, quartet, quintet, sextet, 21-piece big band, as well as his 2012 full orchestral work The Black American Symphony.

On May 2, during Jazz Fest at night, he’ll be joined at Three Keys inside the Ace Hotel by vocalist Cyrille Aimée.
