We are thrilled to announce that the extraordinary Corey A. Wallace will grace the Harlem Jazz Series stage this summer! As one of today's most sought-after trombonists, Corey brings a rare combination of technical mastery, deep musical knowledge, and profound respect for the traditions of jazz.

Over his 15+ year career, Corey has performed with an incredible roster of artists spanning multiple genres. From jazz luminaries like Benny Golson, Esperanza Spalding, and Kamasi Washington to contemporary stars like Kelly Clarkson, Rick Ross, and Ms. Lauryn Hill, his versatility and musicianship have made him a first-call musician for artists across the musical spectrum.

As the leader of The Corey Wallace DUBtet, he has maintained a remarkable residency at Smalls Jazz Club for nearly a decade, showcasing his skills as a bandleader, composer, and arranger. His commitment to jazz education through his work with Jazz at Lincoln Center, Syracuse University, and KIPP schools demonstrates his dedication to passing on the rich traditions of this music to the next generation.

Recent highlights include his work with Steven Bernstein's Millennial Territory Orchestra at Carnegie Hall, his Grammy-nominated contribution to Kelly Clarkson's holiday album, and his recognition in DownBeat Magazine's Critics Poll as a Rising Star Trombonist.

This performance promises to be a special evening celebrating the continuing evolution of jazz in one of its most important cultural homes. Don't miss this opportunity to experience world-class musicianship in an intimate setting.

Mark your calendars and prepare to witness jazz history in the making. Harlem, we're coming home! ????
