Jazz from Home: Alphonso Horne

Alphonso Horne is one of the most sought-after trumpeters today. Known for his high level of musicianship, Horne has performed with some of the leading musicians in jazz. He is the bandleader of the early jazz band Gotham Kings and is the creator and producer of “Mother Kofi: The Tale of An African Princess.” Alphonso can also be seen on tour with Rhiannon Giddens, on CBS’s “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” and in the jazz biopic, “BOLDEN.”

This performance highlights the music of Louis Armstrong and the intimate conversation between trumpet and piano.
