Pianist Harry Connick, Jr. and saxophonist Branford Marsalis are old friends who regularly surprise the music world with their eclectic tastes and ability to deliver in a variety of idioms.

When the pair got together to record Occasion , the latest in Marsalis Music's Connick on Piano series, the setting may have been unexpected, but the results were typically challenging and satisfying. After the positive response that Occasion received upon its spring 2005 release, further encounters by the pair were inevitable. One particularly memorable set, from the duo's world premiere appearance at the Ottawa Jazz Festival, has been captured by award winning director Pierre Lamoureux on Harry and Branford: A Duo Occasion, a new DVD from Marsalis Music.
