Branford Marsalis Quartet

“‘The Secret Between the Shadow and the Soul’ is as immediately intimate as it is infinitely expansive, reflecting a deep interconnectedness between the players.” —DownBeat

Supercharged, daring, delightful. Saxophonist Branford Marsalis is one of the most influential and revered figures in music. The NEA Jazz Master, Grammy winner and Tony nominee is equally at home performing concertos with symphony orchestras and sitting in with the Grateful Dead, but the core of his musical universe remains the Branford Marsalis Quartet. With more than three decades of collaboration, this ensemble is celebrated for its kaleidoscopic range of both original compositions and jazz and popular classics. In the Grammy-nominated “The Secret Between the Shadow and the Soul,” the quartet performs its most emotionally wide-ranging and melody-driven collection of music to date.

For more than 80 years, the Artist Series has brought the globe's finest jazz, classical, world music and dance performers to Boulder. Many of these performances sell out; order your tickets today to guarantee the best seats.

The Secret Between the Shadow and the Soul Review – Intuitive Classic Jazz

Although the form is quite free, each instrumental voice is clearly defined and purposeful. Marsalis and Calderazzo play together with exceptional delicacy and the technique all round is quite stunning.
