Blues in the Night
You could hear the strains of his trumpet before we even turned the corner on to Nicholette Street in downtown Minneapolis. He had found a "stage" in an alley near one of the busy late-night corners; it even had good light to read his sheet music by, not to mention the atmosphere. Between songs, we stepped up and gave him a tip and explained that I wanted to take a few photos. We learned that his name was Kenneth and that he had been playing in several other locations for several hours, hence the apology that his "chops" weren't what they had been an hour before. He also gave me carte blanch to take as many photos as I wanted. None of them are what I would want technically but the feel of them passes muster.
