Performing Arts Center, Hinman Auditorium
Get ready to experience an unforgettable night of jazz mastery as Arts Bonita proudly presents the phenomenal Jason Marsalis. Jason Marsalis brings a fire in his heart and an unwavering passion for music that is bound to captivate audiences. His dedication to the art of swinging is evident in every note, and the maturity and command he possesses over his craft are palpable to those fortunate enough to have witnessed his performances.
The New York Times describes Jason's playing as "eccentric within graceful boundaries, concerned with polyrhythm as science, history, and gamesmanship, full of the technique used to non-slick ends… Discipline and strategy are written deeply into the band."
Don't miss this extraordinary evening of jazz excellence as Jason Marsalis takes center stage, enchanting the audience with his unique blend of tradition and innovation.
