"Branford Marsalis (who
appeared at the Queen Elizabeth Hall on Monday night) should serve as a
model for a generation of young saxophonists. In the matter of sheer
technical perfection, the only possible comparison is with the late
Stan Getz, but Marsalis achieves it on both tenor and soprano
saxophones."

London Jazz Festival; various venues Sonny Rollins has long outlived his great jazz peers, but even at 79, he's still showing a clean pair of heels to younger musicians, says Dave Gelly

A ride to the moon on a Jitney? Romance sometimes is what you make it, and how you get there is less important then the joy found in taking the journey. Love can blossom most anywhere...even at a country dance held in a garden...just hold your breath and ask ..."May I have the next one?"
Minna Excellent concert tonight in Sto, thank you. Totally inspiring! :)

I still believe that perfection does not belong to this world, but on Sunday night here in Brussels you made me doubt... Thank you so much for the excellent performance and the presence of the BMQ and also for the humbling conversation we had afterwards, Branford.
"How can you play music without being spiritual ?" Your... question sill echoes inside of me...
Hope we'll keep in touch one day here, in Morocco or North Carolina. Maximum respect to Justin.
Merci Monsieur Marsalis !

Bram Oostveen Yesterday evening in Amsterdam was mesmerizing and so much fun. It was great to hear all the clever musical ideas and little jokes and to watch and hear the interaction between all the members of the band. One critical note :try to void ‘Jingle Bells’ references before December (Mr. Calderazzo really is outrageously br...illiant and funny). Special praise for Justin Faulkner.
Eric Gasore Magnifique concert et très beau moment vécu et partagé dimanche dernier à Bruxelles... Je suis friand de son son au soprano et je suis fort heureux d'avoir découvert Branford à l'alto. Le jeune batteur a de l'avenir... Passer après Jeff "Tain" Watts est déjà un avenir... Quelques étourdis ont appris ce soir là, grâce... à Joe Calderazzo, que le silence fait partie de la musique...
