An Evening with Branford Marsalis

Sunday, March 1st, 2026 @ 7PM

Tickets from $35 to $105

An icon returns to the heart of the jazz world — and the Maryland Hall stage.

Saxophonist Branford Marsalis is a legend in motion. An NEA Jazz Master, Grammy Award winner, and Tony and EMMY nominee, Marsalis has spent decades redefining the boundaries of jazz — from symphony stages to jam sessions with the Grateful Dead. But at the core of his world lies the Branford Marsalis Quartet: a powerhouse ensemble celebrated for its precision, depth, and daring musicality.

With over 30 years of synergy and nearly no lineup changes, the Quartet commands the stage with original compositions and masterful interpretations of jazz and pop classics. Their latest release, Belonging (Blue Note Records), reimagines Keith Jarrett’s iconic 1974 album with bold emotion and brilliance. As The New York Times praised, it’s “a performance that both honors and amplifies.”

Expect an evening that’s intimate, explosive, cerebral — and unforgettable.
