The Music: Nabate Isles

Nabate Isles isn't just a outstanding trumpet player and jazz musician, he's also a family friend. Nabate was classmates with Ian Greenberg at HS 485 -- also known as the School for Performing Arts (or for you TV fans, the high school from "Fame") and we're honored that he's squeezing our evening soiree into his busy schedule. Nabate has gigged with some stellar talents, including Christian McBride, Ravi Coltrane, Steve Coleman and David Gilmore. He's also recorded several solo titles.
*A Special Request: Please don't slow Nabate and his band down as they break down after their set -- Nabate will be heading uptown for a recording session.
