Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis 

All Rise weaves together orchestra, choir, and jazz band into a massive jazz symphony. Marsalis reaches across musical styles—from African chant and New Orleans parade music to symphonic modernism—creating a blues suite that turns “destruction to creativity” and draws “joy out of tragedy.”

Wynton Marsalis’ All Rise

Hollywood Bowl

Wynton Marsalis leads one of jazz's sharpest and most versatile ensembles, a group whose sound The New York Times characterized as big-band stompers, ballads, and percolating curios marked by his fondness for musical onomatopoeia. This group can play everything, from Ellington to Monk to Corea and more. Together they’ve brought jazz’s senses of freedom, interplay, and connectedness as well as its greatest compositions seemingly everywhere, extending the lineage of what began at New Orleans’ Congo Square over 100 years ago to stages all around the world.
