About Wycliffe Gordon: Welcome to Georgia Town

Wycliffe Gordon is a jazz trombonist, composer, and arranger whose work often foregrounds ensemble detail and brass sonority. A former member of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, he returns to the New York City stage at Jazz at Lincoln Center with *Welcome to Georgia Town*, leading an ensemble that reflects his arranging voice. Gordon is also known as a multi-instrumentalist, moving between trombone, trumpet, and didgeridoo. His performances favor craftsmanship and rhythmic drive over spectacle.
