Nicholas Dyson Quartet
January 12, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Kicking off the 2023 season is one of our area’s newest musical arrivals, the Nicholas Dyson Quartet. Trumpeter Nicholas Dyson began studying piano at 4 years, adding flute and trumpet at 10. He studied trumpet with Marcellus Brown and Brad Peters while attending Boise State University in Boise, Idaho, furthering study through lessons with masters Bobby Shew and Jon Faddis, and masterclass performances for the American Brass Quintet and Centre City Brass Quintet. Nicholas began performing and teaching professionally in 1995.
Today, Nicholas is an in-demand private instructor in trumpet, harmony and improvisation. He is a Carleton University Jazz Camp faculty member, and hosted Trumpet Bootcamp for several years at Alcorn Music Studios. He is also an active clinician, adjudicator and guest soloist. When not performing, directing, or recording, Nick can be found teaching students of all ages and backgrounds from his recently relocated home studio in Kamloops, with his dog Bugsy.
The Nicholas Dyson Quartet includes Dan Smith (guitar), Jake McIntyre-Paul (bass), and Gareth Seys (drums).
Admission, coffee, tea and treats all by donation.
