ABOUT THE JOHN LUMPKIN INSTITUTE
Since encouraging his friends in their early 20s to pursue degrees in music, JLI founder, John Lumpkin II has always carried out his passion for teaching. After achieving degrees, awards, and private program recognition, John has continued the tradition of passing on the great wealth of music.
From teaching at his local music programs, such as the Cathedral Arts Project, to Douglas Anderson School of the Arts, he has led by example. Thus, his private-study students have been accepted to Institutions such as Florida State College at Jacksonville and The Juilliard School.
As a non-profit 501(c)3, the JL Institute is able to give more to the young musicians in Jacksonville, FL, through donation-based lessons, concerts, and masterclasses. The goal is for each student to develop an understanding of their role in music today and how to be effective communicators through the musical story they wish to tell on and off the stage. This is the JL Institute.
ABOUT LANGSTON OLIVER
Langston Oliver began playing trumpet at the age of nine. At age ten, he began studying under the late Al Waters, a former saxophone player in the Ray Charles Orchestra. This musical relationship lasted for the next ten years. Under Al Waters’s mentorship, Langston learned jazz history and the fundamentals of music. At age twelve, he was admitted into the Juilliard Jazz Camp, at fifteen he won The Sound of Jazz To Come award at the Stanford Summer Jazz Academy, and at eighteen, he was one of forty-two musicians worldwide to be accepted into the Jazz At Lincoln Center Academy where he studied with world-renowned musician, Wynton Marsalis. In recent years, Langston was invited to play at the prestigious jazz club, The Jazz Corner, acclaimed as one of the top 100 great jazz rooms in the world by Downbeat Magazine. And in 2022, he was accepted into the Tribeca Jazz Institute, a three-month intensive program where only one musician per instrument is admitted from around the world. Currently, Langston is furthering his knowledge of jazz under the mentorship of John Lumpkin and Ulysses Owens Jr. He has also worked on various albums in different genres and continues to expand his knowledge and expertise in the music world. He hopes to bring inspiration and the love of music to his audiences one song at a time.
