Branford Marsalis Tickets

The fact that there were problems with the ticketing process and the air conditioning in the venue made things possibly seem worse than they were! Unfortunately, most of what Branford played was not the type of jazz that I enjoy. I am more accustomed to the music of Wynton Marsalis. That said, the last few pieces that were played by the quartet were enjoyable.

Michael Becker was one of the great tenor sax players of his generation. This was a fitting tribute from players who knew him well. While most of the audience already knew Branford Marsalis and Joe Lovano I suspect most NY jazz fans are not as familiar with George Garzone and Jerry Bergonzi. After this concert everyone in attendance now knows these two belonged on that stage. The Memory of Michael Brecker was well served by this tribute concert.

All the players were all top notch. The sentiment for Michael Brecker was genuine and touching, but the music was mind-blowing. Branford Marsalis, Marcus Printup, Joey Calderazzo and Bill Stewart were standouts, and it was a great privilege to be witness to this performance. No trite or cute phrasing, but beautiful and easy to listen to and get captured by the music.

Great venue, great musicians great evening! Would see the concert again looking forward to the next time

We really enjoyed Branford Marsalis and his band. Love that they changed up their setlist because they were in Indiana and wanted to pay homage to Hoagy Carmichael because of it. The show was great and not too long. Marsalis is fantastic on the Sax...but the drummer was insanely good as well. Just a great time - made me feel like our town has some culture and diversity.

I previously saw The Branford Marsalis Quartet pre-pandemic, back in 2019. This performance was different. It felt more like we were watching a practice. He did mention this was their first time together in about 3 months. At one point, the pianist actually looked at the audience and commented: "You paid for this."It's a very talented group and clearly they enjoy playing together. They were having fun, and everyone got time to expand their parts, but honestly I wanted to hear more from Branford Marsalis.

Great concert. Excellent venue. Bradford could have played a little more but when he did he was excellent.

As a pretty good amateur jazz pianist I have heard and seen many musicians with an appreciation for what they are doing. Branford Marsalis is a legend and his quartet have been together for many years. The various styles and originality of their pieces made for an amazing evening. Most importantly was the communication between the 4 of them-both in between pieces and especially the way they interacted musically. All are top-notch. If you get a chance to see them don't miss it! Oh yeah-the next morning I ran into Branford on a hotel elevator-a true post-concert highlight!

The show was really the piano player who was amazing. Enjoyed his arrangements and enthusiasm. Would have liked to hear more playing from Marsalis.

Second time seeing Branford Marsalis and my mind was blown again.
