About Kasan Belgrave
Kerrytown Concert House identifies Belgrave as a Detroit-native multi-woodwind player. Its biography traces his University of Michigan training, graduate work at Michigan State University, and participation in Detroit’s intergenerational jazz mentorship tradition.[1]
Wynton Marsalis’s official personnel archive documents Belgrave on alto and soprano saxophones, flute, and clarinet during 2023 Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra dates. The record complements the Detroit biography without implying permanent orchestra membership beyond the documented performances.[2]
Dual Citizen, released by Institutional Green in 2025, presents Belgrave as a compositional leader and credits him on alto and tenor saxophones and flute. The ten-track sextet recording draws its personnel from the Detroit mentorship network described in the label’s project notes.[3]
