Jean Caze

Trumpet

When Jean Caze lifts his trumpet to his lips, three worlds collide: the ancestral rhythms of Haiti flowing through his bloodstream, the sophisticated harmonies of Manhattan's jazz conservatories echoing in his mind, and the sun-soaked intensity of Miami's cultural crossroads pulsing in his heart. This Haitian-American virtuoso doesn't just play trumpet—he conjures lightning, transforming metal and breath into pure emotion. From his Queens childhood beginnings to sharing stages with Herbie Hancock and Aretha Franklin, Jean has earned comparisons to Miles Davis not through imitation, but through his own fearless exploration of what it means to be a 21st-century jazz prophet. His flugelhorn whispers secrets while his conch shell calls to ancient spirits, but it's his trumpet that speaks the universal language of human experience, whether he's commanding Michael Bublé's international arena tours or crafting intimate moments that make critics reach for superlatives they've never used before.
