Brandford Marsalis Quartet – Belonging Tour at Brooks Center of the Performing Arts
The Branford Marsalis Quartet brings the Belonging Tour to Clemson to kick off the Brooks Center’s 2025–2026 season. Saxophonist Branford Marsalis is one of the most influential and revered figures in contemporary music. The NEA Jazz Master, GRAMMY Award winner and Tony Award nominee is equally at home performing concertos with symphony orchestras and sitting in with members of the Grateful Dead, but the core of his musical universe remains the Branford Marsalis Quartet. This celebrated ensemble is revered for its uncompromising interpretation of a kaleidoscopic range of both original compositions and jazz and popular classics. After the GRAMMY-nominated Upward Spiral, on which guest vocalist Kurt Elling was seamlessly integrated into the group, the Quartet followed up with the GRAMMY-nominated album The Secret Between the Shadow and the Soul, its most emotionally wide-ranging and melody-driven collection to date. This spring, the Quartet made its Blue Note Records debut with the release of Belonging, a full album interpretation of Keith Jarrett’s 1974 ECM album of the same name.
