Marcus Roberts Trio

Marcus Roberts Trio

SMF Associate Artistic Director Marcus Roberts offers another extraordinary look into his original artistry with a rare full-concert SMF appearance with his trio featuring bassist Rodney Jordan and drummer Jason Marsalis. After nearly 20 years of performing together, the near telepathic sound of the Marcus Roberts Trio is one in which all the musicians share equally in shaping the direction of the music through changing its tempo, mood, texture or form, through a system of musical cues. As a result, each trio member’ss enormous individual talent is showcased along with the powerfully rhythmic group sound. One of the most enjoyable aspects of a Marcus Roberts Trio concert is that these three musicians are really having fun playing together, which means you’re in for a lunchtime set that is sure to be enjoyable and swinging.

“We call him ‘the genius of the modern piano’ because he is.” —Wynton Marsalis
