Updated as requested for a side by side comparison.

I think this is one image that would really look a lot better in black and white....gritty, grainy stark B&W seems to enhance pics of musicians.

Thats a really cool shot.
I like it.
Try some other conversions to compare.
I would go b/w, very dark and contrasty with grain, etc.
But this is definately a great conversion as it is.

Great shot but I agree would love to see a dark B&W conversion to compare to your sepia version.

I agree with Matt, this would look superb as a 1920’s type noir

Interesting,
B&W was the way I first converted it, just wasn't happy with the result.
I guess with trumpet & the style of hat he is wearing I kept thinking of the 20's Jazz kind of image, and the sepia (to me) looked more suitable.
I'll have another stab at the B&W & post the result.
Cheers.
