Branford Marsalis, one of the greatest saxophonists of the past 40 years will perform in the Great Hall of Lucerna in Prague on 3 November at 8pm as part of the Prague Sounds 2024 festival. In its virtually uninterrupted three-plus decades of existence, the Quartet has established a rare breadth of stylistic range and is revered for its uncompromising interpretation of both original compositions and jazz and popular classics. But Branford has not confined his music to the jazz quartet context. 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.
