"All players are always looking for something new to make."

Trumpeter and flugelhorn sensation Art Farmer is among jazz’s most eminent masters. Steeped in both swing and bebop, Farmer’s mellifluous tone and flawless articulation give him a very personal sound. In addition to developing his own sophisticated approach to the music, Farmer has widened its geographical reach during an extended residence overseas. He joins Dr. Taylor and his trio on the road at the Philharmonic Center for the Arts in Naples, Florida.
