Savannah Music Festival - Marcus Roberts

Airs Thursday, November 17th at 8:00pm
In the 100 years since jazz music became an integral part of American culture, the piano has remained fundamental to its development. There have been many great pianists whose original contributions and achievements have helped define the course of jazz, and that tradition still remains intact today. In this episode of the Savannah Music Festival LIVE, we listen to one of the most extraordinary pianists of our time, Marcus Roberts. Hear Roberts perform solo, with his trio and with a few special guests during his spring 2008 visit to the Savannah Music Festival.
