“Step into the timeless soundscape of Brazilian jazz as trumpeter James Moore leads a stellar ensemble in tribute to the legendary Antonio Carlos Jobim — the genius behind classics like The Girl from Ipanema, Corcovado, and Wave.

 Renowned for his lyrical tone and expressive phrasing, Moore brings both reverence and fresh energy to Jobim’s iconic catalogue, drawing on years of experience across classical, jazz, and Latin idioms. With acclaimed guitarist Marty Ashby and pianist Joe Sheehan anchoring the harmony, and the powerhouse rhythm section of Paul Thompson and Tom Wendt, this quintet breathes new life into the cool sophistication of bossa nova and the rich textures of Brazilian songcraft.

 A night of rhythm, elegance, and homage to one of the 20th century’s most influential composers — don’t miss this masterful celebration of Jobim’s enduring legacy.”
