What It’s Like to Hire a Jazz Trumpet Player in Atlanta

As a jazz trumpet player in Atlanta, I get hired for a wide range of events—weddings, cocktail hours, gallery openings, and even private dinners. But one event stands out: a surprise proposal at the Atlanta Botanical Garden.

The groom-to-be reached out looking for a jazz trumpet player in Atlanta who could play “La Vie En Rose” as he popped the question. I worked with him to time everything perfectly. As they entered the garden, I began playing solo near the fountain. She said yes before the tune was even over—and they both told me afterward that the music made it feel like a movie scene.

That’s the kind of personalized, emotional experience live trumpet playing can offer. Whether it’s a full band or a solo serenade, you get a human connection and musical storytelling that recordings just can’t replicate.
