Ridgefield Playhouse: Branford Marsalis
Three-time Grammy-winning jazz saxophonist, Branford Marsalis has been performing with The Branford Marsalis Quartet since 1986. A frequent soloist with classical ensembles, Branford has become increasingly sought after as a featured soloist with acclaimed orchestras around the world, performing works by composers such as Copeland, Debussy, Glazunov, Ibert, Mahler, Milhaud, Rorem, Vaughan Williams and Villa-Lobos. And his legendary guest performances with the Grateful Dead and collaborations with Sting have made him a fan favorite in the pop arena.
