A DARING leap off a five-foot-high stage, by Barbadian saxophonist Elan Trotman, provided a show-stopping finale to the Jazz Artists On The Greens (JAOTG) concert, on Saturday night, at WASA Grounds, St Joseph.

Trotman blew hearts and minds and made hairs on napes and forearms stand on end, with some deft finger work on his alto sax, before gleefully falling into the wide-open arms of the sold-out crowd, during a stellar performance.

“Nothing is ever planned with me, man,” Trotman laughed, during an exchange with the Express backstage following his set.

While his “leap of faith” was not planned, it did bring up images of injured jazz legend Sonny Rollins hobbling in the crowd after attempting a similar feat years earlier, Trotman added.
