From the organizer

Jason Marshall Musician | Educator | Thought LeaderI have been entrusted with an aptitude for music so that I can be about the work of wellness in my community and in my environment. That work includes restoring our subconscious and super-subconscious memory, reacquainting with our original customs and languages; restoring and developing our intrinsic culture. I gather the pieces of our fractured history together in the vibrations of our ancestors that we might fashion an accurate map of the way forward. Together.Jason Marshall is a premiere voice on the baritone saxophone, rooted in the bebop tradition yet deeply expansive in his musical curiosity. Based in New York City since 2003, he has built a wide-reaching career as a performer, composer, arranger, educator, and cultural voice. His work honors the joy, complexity, and legacy of Black American Music, spanning styles and generations with integrity and soul.Jason holds a Master of Music in Jazz Performance from Queens Colleges Aaron Copland School of Music and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Saxophone from The New Schools School of Jazz and Contemporary Music.

At Columbia University Business School, he gives lectures on how jazz and African American culture can positively influence corporate cultures around the world. Jasons writing extends his role as a cultural historian and thinker. His published essayson John Coltrane, Hampton Hawes, Lee Morgan, and Stanley Turrentinehonor Black music luminaries and their continued resonance.
