- **Event Description**: 50 years of Kansas City jazz. Trumpet legend. Duke Ellington Award winner. The keeper of the Blue Room's soul.About this EventStan Kessler doesn't just play trumpet. He is Kansas City jazz — a living bridge between the tradition and tomorrow, a musician's musician and a people's musician all at once. After 50 years as a trumpet and flugelhorn player, composer, and educator, Kessler has become the institutional memory and passionate advocate of the Kansas City jazz community, beloved not just for his virtuosity but for his humor, generosity, and refusal to play it safe.Kessler leads several ensembles, most notably the Sons of Brasil — a project that lets him explore the deep groove of Brazilian and Afro-Cuban jazz — and the Stanton Kessler Quartet, where bebop meets modern sensibility. His versatility across jazz, R&amp;B, funk, and Latin music keeps audiences guessing and grinning. He's collaborated with icons like Clark Terry and Paquito D'Rivera, recorded 12 CDs, and earned accolades including Musician of the Year and induction into the Kansas Music Hall of Fame in 2021. In 2023, he received the Duke Ellington Award for excellence in jazz education — recognition of his 25 years teaching jazz theory and improvisation and his tireless work with young musicians.But what makes a Stan Kessler night at the Blue Room special is the man himself: his engaging warmth, his playful antics, his absolute commitment to making sure everyone in the room is having as much fun as he is. This is a musician who understands that jazz is a conversation, and he's inviting you to join.The Blue Room, 1600 E 18th St, Kansas City, MO 64108. 8:30 pm &amp; 10 pm.
