Chance


This is Chance.  Or rather Chantz.  I saw him on the Promenade where he was one of the street performers.  And what a performance!  Wow!  He starts out by singing a jazz number, and then he starts tap dancing, and THEN he starts playing his trumpet!  What a performance!  If all he did was one of those things, he would be amazing, and to do all three is incredible.  He always had a crowd around him watching, and a majority of the people made a donation to his "treasure chest."  I went up to speak to him during a break.  He is from New Orleans, and now lives in New York City, but travels around the country and the world performing.  He is the most exciting performers that I have ever seen on the Promenade!  I tried to photograph him while performing, but the light level was too low, and almost all the images were blurry. You can see him perform on Your Tube - search for Chantz Powell, or  try this link: < http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W60_On-nxws >

I typed link & it did not work but Chantz Powell did. Happy you had the opportunity to see him perform.
Very talented. Must have been a fun night strolling the promenade.
