The man, the myth, the jazz legend—Terence Blanchard—is an eight-time GRAMMY winner, two-time Oscar-nominated trumpeter and composer whose virtuosity spans jazz, opera, film, Broadway, and orchestral music, giving powerful voice to civil rights and social justice through his music. With his longtime band E-Collective, Blanchard returns to his jazz roots at Logan Center, showcasing his mastery as a bandleader and soloist.
Supported by the Harve A. Ferrill Fund, the Logan Center Jazz Forever Fund, a gift of the Revada Foundation, and the Evelyn Brody and Jack B. Siegel Concert Fund. Presented in partnership with Chicago Jazz Magazine, DownBeat, Jazz Institute of Chicago, and WDCB 90.9 FM.
