Born in New Orleans in 1961\, he is the son of renowned jazz pianist and music educator Ellis Marsalis\, Jr. Marsalis was gifted his first trumpet at age six by Al Hirt; soon after\, he began playing in New Orleans’s famed Fairview Baptist Church Band led by banjoist Danny Barker. However\, it wasn’t until he turned 12 that Marsalis began to formally train on the trumpet and perform in bands throughout the city\, from the New Orleans Philharmonic and New Orleans Youth Orchestra to funk bands\, concert bands\, and small jazz ensembles. As a teenager\, his passion for music rapidly escalated. In 1979\, at the age of 17\, Marsalis moved to New York City to study classical trumpet at the Juilliard School. He quickly entrenched himself in New York’s effervescent jazz scene\, launching his career with the legendary Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. At just 19\, Marsalis hit the road with his own band—he has been touring the world ever since. From 1981 to the time of this writing\, he has performed 5\,328 concerts in 856 distinct cities and 66 countries around the world.
