(JEWISH GROUP) Berklee ousts star trumpeter after antisemitic comments surface [View all]
Berklee College of Music has ousted Grammy Award-winning trumpeter Nicholas Payton after a conservative news outlet surfaced social media posts he made in 2020 critical of Jewish people.
Payton, who was named chair of Berklee’s brass department last fall, announced on social media that Berklee officials had told him last week that he had “24 hours to resign or be terminated.”
Berklee officials confirmed Payton’s ouster but did not provide further details or give a reason for his dismissal.
“Nicholas Payton is no longer employed by Berklee College of Music,” the school said in a brief statement to the Globe. “It is our practice not to comment on personnel matters.”
