The Maurice Brown Effect

Saturday, December 3, 2011, 8:00 PM
Cullen Theater, Wortham Theater Center
Pre-concert conversation with jazz educator Dr. Robert Morgan at 7:30 PM in Cullen Theater

With the release of his album, The Cycle of Love, trumpet virtuoso Maurice Brown took another giant step forward as an internationally acclaimed musician, composer, bandleader and performer. Brown’s soulful melodies and infectious personality are a dynamic package that uniquely marries traditional be-bop to hip-hop.

“Maurice Brown is one of the most exciting young trumpeters in jazz--be it New Orleans or New York. His improvisations are fresh, his chops dynamic and he’s writing what could very well become a new generation of hard-bop-meets-new-grooves standards.”-- DownBeat

“In one of the most startling debuts of the year, 30-year-old trumpeter Brown…announced himself as a triple-threat artist, equally effective as virtuoso trumpeter, versatile composer and supremely confident bandleader.”-- Chicago Tribune
