In 1949, Charles Burrell (1921-2025) became the first person of color to play with a major symphony orchestra in the U.S. With the exception of six years with the San Francisco Symphony, Charlie spent the entirety of his career in Denver, retiring from the Colorado Symphony in 1999. Not limited to classical music, he also ascended to the highest levels of jazz playing in some of Denver’s most hallowed Five Points venues with such legends as Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis and more.

Organizer

Longmont Museum

Longmont is a diverse, multicultural and receptive city, one in which it’s easy for people to make connections and to thrive as part of the community. As home to many customs and cultures, it’s easy for residents and visitors to find fellowship with others of similar backgrounds and to explore and join in traditions that are new or foreign. The many nonprofit, civic and cultural organizations of Longmont welcome new people to become involved, and there is opportunity to find others with whom to share almost any interest. Not only do “you belong in Longmont” if you’re looking for a welcoming hometown or business location, but “when you’re in Longmont, you belong.”
