Wynton Marsalis

“The 20th was the century of communication. The 21st will be the century of integration. Our rapidly developing global community is the most exciting modern reality.” So opens Wynton Marsalis’ notes to “All Rise,” considered the composer’s Symphony No. 1 — a work not just of music, but of life, history, and the joyous power people hold to create art and progress when they work collectively and collaboratively. Two extraordinary performances of “All Rise” are the cornerstone of the closing week of the Chautauqua season, as Chautauqua’s very own Music School Festival Orchestra under the baton of Timothy Muffitt joins forces with the Buffalo Philharmonic Chorus and the legendary Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis on the Amphitheater stage.
