About this event

In their second concert of the fall, the USF Jazz Orchestra, under the direction of Tom Brantley, will perform in the Zinober Concert Hall on campus. The evening will feature Guest Artist Carl Fischer on trumpet. As a multi-instrumentalist on trumpet, flugelhorn, trombone, and saxophones, Carl Fischer's ability and talent have established him as a dynamic and sought-after musician throughout the industry. His professional path has seen significant milestones, including performances with the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra under Wynton Marsalis and a transformative tenure with jazz trumpet legend Maynard Ferguson, where Fischer grew to become a featured soloist, musical director, and was even allowed to be the first trumpet player to open for Ferguson in his 40+ years of touring. The USF Jazz Orchestra is the top jazz big band at USF. It is a 20-piece traditional big-band jazz ensemble performing both classic and contemporary arrangements and compositions.
