Ambrose Akinmusire & Sullivan Fortner (duo)

The Brief

Ambrose Akinmusire is one of jazz’s most distinctive and forward-thinking voices - a trumpeter and composer who blends poetic sensitivity with fearless exploration. His music moves between the intimate and the radical, described by The New York Times as fragile and spellbinding, and by Pitchfork as seeking peace within a world of unrest. On this evening, he is joined by GRAMMY-winning pianist Sullivan Fortner - one of the most in-demand musicians in jazz today, known for his technical brilliance, emotional depth, and unmistakable personal voice. Fortner has collaborated with artists such as Cécile McLorin Salvant and Samara Joy, and is praised by Fred Hersch as “one of the best pianists in the world today.” When Akinmusire and Fortner come together, they create a rare musical space where tradition and innovation merge - quiet, intense, and deeply human. A unique opportunity to experience two of the most original jazz artists of our time sharing the stage. Good to know: * Doors open at 7:00 PM * Age limit: 18+
