As far as musical families are considered, the Marsalis brothers are one of the most talented tribes in the biz. Between the brothers Branford, Wynton, Jason and Delfeayo, there is enough talent to staff an entire New Orleans jazz combo. Although Wynton, the trumpet player, has enjoyed the most commercial success out of the Marsalis family, his brother Delfeayo is a gifted trombonist who is best known for his work as a producer of acoustic jazz recordings. Delfeayo will play at the Grand Plaza Hotel for the last concert of the Jazz on the Maumee series, presented by the Art Tatum Jazz Society. The concert, titled 'Party Like It's Mardi Gras', will feature an evening of New Orleans jazz and food, with Delfeayo and his crew of accomplished musicians performing an extended set. The music will start right after a delicious tasting buffet of traditional New Orleans dishes. So get ready to take a trip down to Bourbon Street and experience the spirit of New Orleans right here in Toledo—beads not included. 7pm. Reservations required. Jazz society members $55, non-members $65. Grand Plaza Hotel, 444 N. Summit St., Toledo. www.arttatumsociety.com. For more information, visit www.arttatumsociety.com or email [email protected]—GMK
