Jonathan Dely -- “Pure Imagination“ -- Live at The NAMM Show

Performing one of jazz’s most extraordinary live concerts, Jonathan Dely leads his All-Star Band across the United States, from venues including Lincoln Center in New York to The NAMM Show in Los Angeles. After declining a full-time, six-figure investment banking position on Wall Street to become a solo trumpet artist, Jonathan earned finalist honors in the National Trumpet Competition, the International Trumpet Guild Jazz Competition, and the Yamaha Young Performing Artist Competition, and has in short time become a rising star jazz artist. Dely’s journey from Wall Street to the stage is the subject of the 2023 short film “Goodbye Jonathan’s Soul“ directed by legendary filmmaker Bob Giraldi. The movie features Jonathan as lead actor and composer and can be watched at the following link using password GJS2023.
