Blanchard (pictured) last played in St. Louis in June 2015 at Jazz at the Bistro, and was a frequent visitor here in 2012 and 2013 as Opera Theatre St. Louis was preparing for the world premiere of his opera Champion in June 2013.
His most recent jazz album Breathless was released in May, 2015 on Blue Note, and was nominated for a 2016 Grammy Award for "Best Jazz Instrumental Album." A prolific film composer, Blanchard also released a soundtrack album for the film The Comedian, directed by Taylor Hackford and starring Robert DeNiro, in February of this year.
