Marcus Roberts: World-renowned jazz pianist, composer, arranger, recording artist, producer, and teacher

March 31, 2009

Today I am very proud to announce the release of our new trio CD ("New Orleans Meets Harlem, Vol. 1") on our brand new label (J-Master Records). This is truly a day of celebration for me.

Our trio (with the phenomenal Jason Marsalis on drums and Roland Guerin on bass) has been together now for 14 years. Both Jason and Roland are based in New Orleans and steeped in its musical traditions. During our years together as a trio, we have studied a lot of music, played a lot of music, created a lot of music and had a lot of fun along the way. And now we are ready to share it with you through these new recordings. So this is the first of a number of CDs that we will be releasing in the near future.  

If you want to buy our new CD (or listen to some clips) just go to our Music Store. We thank you in advance for your support of the music and our trio. Without you, none of this would be possible.
