    YBCA Forum

    Tickets available at sfjazz.org »
    The history of jazz piano resides in the fingers of pianist Marcus Roberts. From early 20th century rags and the two-fisted stride of Depression-era Harlem rent parties to the cascading runs of bebop, Roberts has devised an approach that encompasses about every development in the mainstream jazz tradition. He leads one of the most electrifying and erudite trios in jazz, with bassist Roland Guerin and drummer Jason Marsalis.
