Review :
“Branford Marsalis and his quartet take their bold creativity and warm, familial camaraderie to new heights on 2025's Belonging, a complete reinterpretation of Keith Jarrett's 1974 album of the same title. That inventive band camaraderie is a potent combination Marsalis has been engendering since he first formed a quartet in the 1980s with pianist Kenny Kirkland, bassist Robert Hurst, and drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts. The group -- carried over from his work with his brother Wynton -- was unquestionably one of the best of its time, marked by daring improvisation and an almost preternatural sense for group interplay. In fact, it was apparently Kirkland who first introduced Marsalis to Jarrett's European Quartet with saxophonist Jan Garbarek, bassist Palle Danielsson, and drummer Jon Christensen. Following Kirkland's tragic death at 43, Marsalis kept the group going, bringing on board pianist Joey Calderazzo and eventually adding bassist Eric Revis and drummer Justin Faulkner. He also returned to Jarrett's work, playing a version of "The Windup" (also off Belonging) on 2019's The Secret Between the Shadow and the Soul. Jarrett's original album has a perfect balance of harmonic refinement matched with an organic funkiness, a combination that feels akin to Marsalis' own musical aesthetics. Here, his quartet brings a fresh intensity, as well as a gregariousness to the material, as on the opening "Spiral Dance," which conjures the kinetic, hard-swinging energy of Marsalis' early quartet albums. They also tap into Jarrett's more introspective qualities, as on the delicately rendered ballad "Blossom" and the title track, the latter of which sounds, improbably, as if Duke Ellington had recorded an ECM album. Elsewhere, the quartet illuminates the roiling gospel funk and lively Caribbean rhythms of "'Long as You Know You're Living Yours" and the aforementioned "The Windup," respectively. As with Jarrett's original recording, Marsalis ends with "Solstice," a track that manages to bring together several of his stylistic touchstones, melding a classical lyricism with a post-bop sophistication, and even forays into avant-garde skronk. Ultimately, Belonging feels like a full-circle moment for Marsalis, bringing both his group's history and his long-gestating passion for Jarrett's music into his quartet's vibrant present.” AllMusic Review by Matt Collar
