Marquis Hill Blacktet Revisited

Trumpeter Marquis Hill, who gained international recognition by winning the Thelonious Monk Competition, is meeting music lovers at the Komünite venue in Beyoğlu with his Blacktet Revisited project. The event will take place on October 17 at 21.30.

While drawing on the traditional lines of jazz masters such as Miles Davis and Clifford Brown, the artist incorporates hip-hop, R&B, neo-soul, and Chicago house styles into his music. Praised by publications such as the New Yorker and DownBeat for his genre-bending approach, Hill brings different musical styles together on a common ground.

Nurtured by Chicago’s deep-rooted music climate, this performance aims to offer listeners a high-energy stage experience. The musician treats traditional jazz and modern street genres as branches of the same root.
