An Evening with Branford Marsalis
Thursday, October 25 | 7:30 p.m. $45–$75, Callahan Theater
Three-time Grammy Award winner and “most respected living U.S. jazz instrumentalist” (Las Vegas Sun) Branford Marsalis comes to the Arts Center to lead his unparalleled quartet in this one-night-only engagement.
Known for the telepathic communication among its uncommonly consistent personnel, the Branford Marsalis Quartet has long been recognized as the standard against which other ensembles of its kind must be measured, featuring a deep book of original music and an unrivaled spirit in both live and recorded performances.
Led by NEA Jazz Master Marsalis on saxophone, the tight-knit working band features Joey Calderazzo on piano, Eric Revis on bass, and Justin Faulkner on drums.
“Saxophonist Marsalis leads one of the most cohesive, intense small jazz ensembles on the scene today.”
