The Trumpets Shall Sound…as well as trombones, French horns and a tuba when America’s premier large brass ensemble performs beloved Christmas music and other favorites. Born into the first family of American jazz, Rodney Marsalis began trumpet lessons at age six. Under the tutelage of his cousin, Wynton, Rodney was identified early on as a trumpet prodigy and has gone to perform as soloist with orchestras around the world.
