Branford Marsalis is an American Jazz Saxophonist from the deep south of the USA. He is an alumnus of the Berklee School of Music, and from then on right up until now, had the most amazing career from his graduation right up until the present day being such a recognized and respected musician.
As a musician, I am blown away by the virtuosity and technical ability that he showcases when he performs live. He performs a song called “Peace” which has some fantastic moments, but is essentially lead by a catchy hook on the saxophone, beautifully constructed in a way that you would be singing it for days. After playing the melody a couple of times, the variations come in as the song goes on, but the variations are even played on all of the other instruments. It gradually turns into a jam, made up of some of the most interesting solos I’ve heard, almost as though they’re too well constructed to have been improvised on the spot. That’s Jazz music for you! Hats off to you, Brandford Marsalis!
