Branford Marsalis: SU Family Weekend Concert

Location(s)

Recognized as one of the world’s most accomplished jazz musicians, Marsalis, along with his band, will take the stage for a performance during SU Family Weekend. A three-time Grammy winner from one of the world’s most distinguished musical families, Marsalis is known for his innovative spirit and broad musical scope.

Equally at home on the stages of the world’s greatest clubs and concert halls, Marsalis has performed jazz with his quartet. He adds his own unique musical approach to contemporary popular music with his band Buckshot LeFonque.

His latest CD, “Metamorphosen,” marks the 10th anniversary of the quartet, which features pianist Joey Calderazzo, bassist Eric Revis and drummer Justin Faulkner. The CD includes original compositions by all four members in a variety of moods, and features Marsalis on tenor, soprano and alto saxophones.
