Jean's experience includes having performed with stellar legendary artists such as: Herbie Hancock, Aretha Franklin, Michael Bublé, Mariah Carey, Al Jarreau, Roy Hargrove, Arturo Sandoval and George Duke, just to name a few. A millennial jazz and world music artist, trumpeter Jean Caze is the definition of a true global artist. His unique style and playing provides his audience with a musical experience unlike any, in jazz past or present. Growing up in Queens, NY, Haitian-American Caze began playing the trumpet at the age of nine. He recalls, "The most amazing feeling I can remember in music was my first concert while I was nine years old. During the concert, each kid played a part of the melody as a solo. When I played my solo, the audience came alive. I was shocked to discover that I had the power to connect with the crowd through the music - I felt empowered." Ever captivating; Caze and his sophisticated-rootsy unique style will continue to provoke much conversation in all music circles as he continues to elevate his stature as a top renowned jazz-world music artist. Caze is working on a new solo project to be released in 2019. "With a sound compared to the likes of Miles Davis, it is no wonder that Jean Caze has achieved such astounding success as a trumpet player. ..." - Music educator Carl Saunders "Strong, and unexpectedly diverse, Mr. Caze confidently evoked Miles Davis on a pensive ballad, 'Old Folks, ' and a brisk anthem, 'My Shining Hour'." - Nate Chinen, The New York Times write your comments about the article :: © 2019 Jazz News :: home page |
