with special guest Kurt Elling

Monday July 31, 2017 at 7:00 PM
Muriel Kauffman Theatre | Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts

Rescheduled Performance: The Branford Marsalis Quartet will be joined by guest vocalist Kurt Elling in a singular collaboration of musical forces. The tight-knit working band features Marsalis on saxophones, Joey Calderazzo on piano, Eric Revis on bass and Justin Faulkner on drums. Adding Elling’s deep jazz vocabulary, technical versatility and outstanding intonation, Elling will enable the band to perform a variety of material in new ways. Looking beyond the Great American Songbook, one of the most intense jazz bands and one of the genre’s foremost singers deliver a performance that’s anything but standard.
