Brian Culbertson — The Trilogy Tour, Detroit
Why this recording
On 30 March 2024, Detroit hosted the last of the Trilogy Tour's seventy dates, and that closing night is what Robert Hubbard filmed, for a programme also released on 4K UHD and Blu-ray with Dolby Atmos sound. The detailed chapters let you move between songs from all three parts of The Trilogy and older favourites such as Always Remember and On My Mind. At 27:23 Culbertson explains how the trilogy came about; at 46:40 he introduces his band, led by drummer and musical director Chris Miskel. The cover of Wild Cherry's Play That Funky Music comes in at 1:25:40.

Full concert by Brian Culbertson from the Trilogy Tour, filmed in Detroit — nearly two hours of music in 4K. An American multi-instrumentalist (keyboards, trombone, piano), Brian Culbertson is a figure of contemporary jazz shaded with funk and R&B. Onstage he unfolds a warm, generous groove, between tight funk grooves, soul ballads and improvisation, powered by a horn-driven, tight-knit band. The polished capture highlights the artist’s infectious energy and his rapport with the Detroit crowd, in the cradle city of soul. This filmed live full concert is a fine entry point to smooth jazz-funk and high-end instrumental groove. Keywords: Brian Culbertson live, Trilogy Tour, Detroit, funk, contemporary jazz, filmed live concert, full concert.
