BALTIMORE — In WMAR's first Black Music Month series, a week full of stories from across the music scene in the DMV and Baltimore area takes you on a ride from Hip-Hop, to R&B to GoGo music.
Now, in the finale to the series in 2024, a smooth jazz send-off.
Marc Cary, a master on the piano, has more than 40 years on his resume and he credits the longevity of his career on the keys to being a student of the game, and sharing that knowledge with other artists.
He's been a part of creating platforms for other talent to showcase diverse sounds through his bands, Indigenous People and the Focus Trio.
Meanwhile, his foundation always brings him back to classical jazz; where he learned from legends.
"There’s a lot of memories that I have playing with some of the greatest musicians in the world," Cary said.
Watch the video to see how long that legendary list goes.
