Multi-instrumentalist, composer and trumpet master, New Orleans native Nicholas Payton is one of the most important artists working and recording today. A virtuoso before he was out of high school, his talent and skills have earned him praise and accolades and ensured his place in musical history across genre boundaries. Payton has composed and arranged, performed and recorded with his own groups in many settings, including solo, duo, trio, quartet, quintet, sextet, 21-piece big band, as well as his 2012 full orchestral work The Black American Symphony—this month, catch him at the Manship as a guest of the River City Jazz Masters Concert Series. 7:30 pm. $28–$48. manshiptheatre.org.
