Branford Marsalis Quartet with Special Guest Kurt Elling

East Carolina University's S. Rudolph Alexander Performing Arts Series presents the Branford Marsalis Quartet and the Grammy-winning vocalist Kurt Elling in a collaboration of musical forces. Marsalis on saxophones, Joey Calderazzo on piano, Eric Revis on bass and Justin Faulkner on drums rarely invite other musicians into the folds of their nearly telepathic cohesive unit. But Elling’s deep jazz vocabulary, technical versatility and outstanding intonation will enable the band to perform a variety of material in new ways. The collaboration between jazz’s most intense band and one of jazz’s foremost singers will prove to be anything but standard. It’s a not-to-be-missed event. Full and pick-five subscriptions available now. Individual tickets go on sale August 26. Sign up for an on-sale alert and special offers on our website.
