Wine & Jazz—Saturday, June 1

Featuring the Branford Marsalis Quartet

World-renowned saxophonist and three-time Grammy winner Branford Marsalis brings his Quartet to headline the Wine & Jazz Festival.

The New Orleans native was born in 1960 into one of the city’s most distinguished musical families, which includes patriarch/pianist/educator Ellis and Branford’s siblings Wynton, Delfeayo, and Jason. Branford gained initial acclaim through his work with Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers and his brother Wynton’s quintet in the early 1980s before forming his own ensemble. He has also performed and recorded with jazz giants including Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Herbie Hancock, and Sonny Rollins. For more on visit branfordmarsalis.com.
