On The K Jazz Show today, we welcome one of the great voices of our time on trumpet—Sean Jones.

He’s a celebrated bandleader, composer, and former lead trumpeter of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis.

As Artistic Director of Carnegie Hall’s National Youth Jazz Orchestra, Sean is shaping the next generation of jazz ambassadors, taking this music across the globe.

He joins us to talk about the powerful new live album Live in Johannesburg, recorded at the iconic Market Theatre here in city.

This is a story of music, history, and cultural exchange told through the spirit of jazz.
