Jazz at Lincoln Center with Wynton Marsalis

New York comes to Glasgow through one of the great jazz orchestras. Led by trumpeter and director Wynton Marsalis and packed with first-rate instrumentalists, JALCO celebrates the entire jazz heritage with newly minted arrangements, producing music that is high art, exciting, bursting with flavour and proof that the best tribute to jazz history is to take it into the future.

"Our band of virtuosos play in all styles, the early genius of Fletcher Henderson, the Kansas City stomp of Count Basie, the urbane sophistication of Duke Ellington, the fire of Dizzy Gillespie, the cool sounds of Gerry Mulligan and the innovations of Charles Mingus." (Wynton Marsalis in the New York Times)
