Le Gesù Book

“Keyon Harrold is the future of the trumpet”- Downbeat Magazine: an inventive, multidisciplinary, genre-fluid artist; trumpeter and vocalist; a composer, arranger, and platinum music producer; bandleader and major recording artist.

“Keyon Harrold Is Equal Parts Music” - Billboard: musically, Harrold lives by the notion that the only thing that identifies a genre is its beat. That belief has allowed harrold to tear down the walls of the genre to roam music freely. There are only 12 notes, so he pours his soul into every musical situation, be it performing live, recording, or composing for television and film.

In 2022, Jason Moran was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and was recently awarded the 2023 German Jazz Prize for Pianist of the Year. His latest recording, From the Dancehall to the Battlefield, is devoted to the music of World War I jazz pioneer and organizer James Reese Europe, the big bang of jazz. Jason Moran has collaborated with a number of contemporary artists, such as Joan Jonas, Kara Walker, Stan Douglas, Theaster Gates and Remy Jungeman.
