Over the years Marcus Wyatt has developed the reputation of being one of the most versatile trumpet players in South Africa. He is a shining star in the sky of contemporary South African Jazz. Aware of the important legacy upon which he adds his fresh melodies, he nonetheless strives towards the definition of a novel sound, one which is consciously abandoning characteristically South African pattern, opening up for creativity beyond the accepted norms. He is equally at home in any number of settings from small ensembles, trios and big bands to drum and bass, hip hop, R&B and house and around the corner to free improvisation. This combined with a warm, wide sound, has earned him the respect of both his fellow musicians and critics alike.
