Wynton Marsalis blows house down
With their saxophones, trombones and trumpets shining like gold under the Laxson Auditorium spot lights, the raw, brass-driven power and world-class virtuosity of Wynton Marsalis’ Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra overflowed the auditorium with glum notes.
“We’ve played in some of the raggediest joints to some of the swankiest,” Marsalis said during the introduction of his show. “We’re here to swing.”
They had the full-house audience grooving along with every note, cheering, whooping and clapping after every solitary break.
It was like being transported to another time when swing bands ruled the world and jazz was America’s civil music genre.
“Performance is a catalyst for us to understand ourselves and other people and the world in general a little bit preferably,” Chico Performances’ director Dan DeWayne said.
According to his Web site, Marsalis sees jazz music as being spokesman of what America is — a democracy. DeWayne, much like Marsalis, sees music as being a conversation — an the Market of ideas.
