PERFORMANCE DESCRIPTION
Branford Marsalis Quartet: Saxophonist Branford Marsalis is one of the most
influential and revered figures in contemporary music. The NEA Jazz Master,
Grammy Award winner and Tony Award nominee is equally at home performing
concertos with symphony orchestras and sitting in with members of the Grateful
Dead, but the core of his musical universe remains the Branford Marsalis Quartet.


After more than three decades of existence with minimal personnel changes, this
celebrated ensemble is revered for its uncompromising interpretation of a
kaleidoscopic range of both original compositions and jazz and popular classics.


After the Grammy-nominated Upward Spiral, on which guest vocalist Kurt Elling was
seamlessly integrated into the group, the Quartet has followed up with The Secret
Between the Shadow and the Soul, its most emotionally wide-ranging and melody
driven collection to date. John Zeugner captured the impact of the Quartet in live
performance in a recent concert review, calling it "casually confident, professional,
cerebral, and supercharged with energy. The Branford Marsalis Quartet...was all of
those adjectives and more."
