For those like Candy or Dave Koz it's "entertaining" that they excel at. They are accomplished horn players but they have the knack for interacting with the crowd and put on a good show.
I've seen Dave Koz and his traveling show a couple of times in my area and it's always fresh. He gets into what he does and the crowd loves it. On another note, a couple of years ago David Sanborn came to the same venue and his performance was less than exciting. Even a bit boring for those that aren't necessarily musically inclined.
I'd much rather listen to Sanborn's studio stuff and take the wife to a Koz show any day! YMMV
