SEAN JONES is one of the best jazz trumpet players on the planet. Because of is his virtuosity and language, he can easily be compared to a young Dizzy Gillespie in his prime.

COMING TO SOUTH CAROLINA: Sean is a musical chameleon and is comfortable in any musical setting no matter what the role or the genre. He is equally adept in being a member of an ensemble as he is at being a bandleader. Sean turned a 6-month stint with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra into an offer from Wynton Marsalis for a permanent position as lead trumpeter, a post he held from 2004 until 2010. In 2015 Jones was tapped to become a member of the SFJAZZ Collective. During this time, Sean has kept a core group of talented musicians together under his leadership forming the foundation for his groups that have produced and released eight recordings on the Mack Avenue Records.

Sean Jones will join the SC JAZZ MASTERWORKS ENSEMBLE at the beautiful, Harbison Theatre on SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 2025 under the direction of Dr. Robert Gardiner for an explosion of big band sounds.

The SC Jazz Masterworks Ensemble, is comprised of eighteen of the finest jazz musicians, soloists, and bandleaders from across the Carolinas and its mission is to present jazz concerts at the highest artistic level. With this many amazing musicians, the musical possibilities are almost unlimited. GET YOUR TICKETS TODAY!
