TERENCE BLANCHARD RELEASES SOUNDTRACK ALBUM FOR
THE COMEDIAN STARRING ROBERT DE NIRO & LESLIE MANN

BLANCHARD’S SCORE FEATURES ACCLAIMED TRUMPETER WITH A TOP-NOTCH SEXTET WITH PIANIST KENNY BARRON, TENOR SAXOPHONIST RAVI COLTRANE, ALTO SAXOPHONIST KHARI ALLEN LEE, BASSIST DAVID PULPHUS & DRUMMER CARL ALLEN

Multiple GRAMMY-winning trumpeter and composer Terence Blanchard has composed a sublime jazz score for The Comedian, the new movie starring Robert De Niro and Leslie Mann that was directed by Taylor Hackford and opens nationwide today. The album The Comedian (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is available today digitally, and will be released on CD April 7th. The album can be downloaded, streamed, or pre-ordered on CD HERE.

Blanchard’s score serves as the perfect setting for the story of Jackie Burke (De Niro), a jazz-loving comic icon who collects Art Blakey records and does a spot-on impression of legendary Birdland emcee Pee Wee Marquette. The music features the acclaimed trumpeter fronting a top notch sextet with pianist Kenny Barron, tenor saxophonist Ravi Coltrane, alto saxophonist Khari Allen Lee, bassist David Pulphus, and drummer Cary Allen.

The track listing for The Comedian (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is as follows:

1. Jackie In The Rain (feat. Kenny Barron, Carl Allen, David Pulphus)

3. Deli To Soup Kitchen (feat. Kenny Barron, Ravi Coltrane, Carl Allen, David Pulphus, Khari Allen Lee)
