Comedian (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) Terence Blanchard - Multiple Grammy-winning trumpeter Terence Blanchard has composed a sublime jazz score for The Comedian, the new Taylor Hackford film starring Robert de Niro and Leslie Mann. Blanchard's score serves as the perfect setting for the story of Jackie Burke (De Niro), a jazz-loving comic icon who collects Art Blakey records. The music features pianist Kenny Barron, tenor saxophonist Ravi Coltrane, alto saxophonist Khari Allen Lee, bassist David Pulphus, and drummer Cary Allen.
