Carl Saunders at The Nash

7:30pm – 10:00pm. Carl Saunders-trumpet, Mike Kocour-piano, Dwight Kilian-bass, Dom Moio-drums. Carl Saunders has lived and worked in relative obscurity for many years. Trumpet players knew of him for his ability to make the seemingly impossible be not only possible, but easy and musical.
