About this event
Wynton Marsalis Quintet’s music features exploratory improvising and writing for two horns, rhythmic shifts, and strettos as well as unpredictable modulations of moods and keys. Above all, there is his hardcore belief in the dynamic power of swinging jazz. From 1985’s Black Codes from the Underground to the Integrity Suite (played before the U.S. Supreme Court in 2023), the music is spontaneous, highly interactive, and serious fun. This special lineup features a superb rhythm section of pianist Marcus Roberts, bassist Reginald Veal, drummer Jason Marsalis, and special guest tenor saxophonist to be announced.
