“American music of the kind offered by trombonist Delfeayo Marsalis and his Uptown Jazz Orchestra remains richly textured and expertly performed, effectively drawing from vintage and modern jazz styles…” states JAZZ TIMES.
NEA Jazz Master & GRAMMY® Award-Winning Jazz Trombonist, Composer & Bandleader DELFEAYO MARSALIS & THE UPTOWN JAZZ ORCHESTRA are one of the best Large Jazz Ensembles in the world today! The mission of the Uptown Jazz Orchestra is to promote a greater appreciation for jazz and its New Orleans’ rooted traditions through world-class performance, artistic excellence, education and community! “Hearing Delfeayo deliver wonderfully woozy lyrical lines, full-bore solos, and the occasional artful gliss is pure joy,” states ALL ABOUT JAZZ.
