A master in classical trumpet, he has made 16 classical and about 30 jazz recordings. He has been awarded eight Grammys in both of the genres. Marsalis, born in New Orleans, is the second son of jazz pianist and composer Ellis Marsalis. His elder brother, Branford Marsalis, plays tenor and soprano saxophone.
