NYO Jazz Concert at the Royal Concertgebouw by Todd Rosenberg
Carnegie Hall’s NYO Jazz—led by trumpet great Sean Jones—is an extraordinary big band comprising some of the best young jazz players from across the United States. Together they showcase jazz as a limitless art form, one that bridges genres, generations, and borders. NEA Jazz Master and Grammy-winning vocalist Dee Dee Bridgewater joins as special guest in this program of timeless jazz standards; big-band gems by Duke Ellington, Dizzy Gillespie, and Roy Hargrove; and contemporary pieces that explore jazz’s influence on hip-hop, R&B, and pop. Don’t miss the band’s first performance in Amsterdam since its highly successful 2018 debut.
