#NOLA native Terence Blachard is a trumpeter and composer. He has written the scores for more than 40 movies and was the first African American composer to have an opera performed at the Met.

Mr Ferbos taught jazz trumpet to NOLA children (including my Uncle Henri) but was a renowned musician in his own right. He performed until shortly before his death at 103!
