About the Show

“[Castellanos] plays with élan, evincing a more individual, ever-large sound offering hard swinging, often ear-grabbing solos…[proving] that music with deep roots in jazz’s glorious ’50s and ’60s can sound completely contemporary today.”
– Zan Stewart, Los Angeles Times
“[Castellanos] always finds new life and new energy to breathe into the notes I write and the grooves we play with him.”
– John Clayton, Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Ensemble
Considered one of the nation’s top-call jazz trumpeters, Gilbert Castellanos is a renowned musician, composer, educator and arranger. Skilled with impressive dexterity and control, his clarity of expression and improvisational fluency moves audiences with a seemingly profound effortlessness and complexly emotive affect.
