Former SF State Artist-in-Residence Branford Marsalis to Perform in San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO EXAMINER -- “San Francisco is more of a jazz town than any other city in California,” says Marsalis, who conducted master classes in the genre at San Francisco State University in the early 2000s. “San Francisco is the cultural capital on the West Coast, and I always have a great time playing there because the audiences are more adventurous. I know you can challenge them and they’ll understand what you’re trying to do.”
