Grammy-nominated trombonist Conrad Herwig is coming back to Cincy! Conrad will lead a septet of Cincinnati’s finest musicians through the “Latin Side” of such giants as John Coltrane, Horace Silver, Joe Henderson, and many more.

New York jazz trombonist Conrad Herwig has recorded 30 albums as a leader, receiving four Grammy nominations. He has also been voted #1 Jazz Trombonist three times in the DownBeat Jazz Critic’s Poll, and nominated for Trombonist of the Year by the Jazz Journalists Association on numerous occasions.

In constant demand as a sideman, Herwig has performed with Joe Henderson, Horace Silver, McCoy Tyner and Joe Lovano (featured as a soloist on Lovano’s GRAMMY Award-winning 52nd St. Themes CD). In the Afro-Caribbean genre, he has toured with legends such as Eddie Palmieri, Tito Puente, Paquito D’Rivera and Michel Camilo. He is a longtime member of the Mingus Big Band (where he has served as musical director and arranger including on the 2011 GRAMMY- winning Live at the Jazz Standard CD). In other big band settings, Herwig has also performed and/or recorded with Clark Terry, Buddy Rich, Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis & Quincy Jones, and the Gil Evans Orchestra.

All told Herwig has appeared on more than 200 albums in what is now a 40-plus-year career. Conrad Herwig performs exclusively on Michael Rath Trombones, England.
