May 10 - 7:30 p.m., MAINSTAGE
Tickets - $24 - $18 - $12
The unmistakable songs made famous by Louis Armstrong ring clear in this
special tribute by trumpeter Marcus Belgrave and his eight-member band.
Blessed
with the chops and personality to pay a fitting tribute to the New Orleans
legend, Marcus Belgrave is hailed as one of the few performers working
today with the essential qualities needed to deliver a loving and convincing
tribute to Louis Armstrong.
Belgrave
is an astonishing trumpet virtuoso with a natural gravelly voice, an engaging
warm stage persona and down home sense of humor.
Hand
picked by Wynton Marsalis as one of the original members of the Lincoln
Center Jazz Orchestra, Belgrave is joined by his eight-piece band in this
show that is big in sound, big in respect and big with audiences across
the country.
This
season finale truly is a musical journey through the life and story of
one of America's most beloved musicians of all time.
