I started playing trumpet in 1981..... I grew up with this gifted man leading the way.....I am no where near the player he is,but I feel he has helped me along the way on my music journey!

I can never hear enough of Wynton's word or notes.

The man not only respects jazz and it's traditions, but calls attention to the genre as a high art.

How well spoken. How beautifully played. Solemn and hopeful all at once.

Something about the trumpet just brings me to a feeling of what America is. Subtle, humble, with just the sheer sound of the American spirit. I shed a tear every time hearing this hymn. God bless America.

Tears....many tears. Your interpretation of Amazing Grace speaks to my heart, and deep in my soul. Thank you for gracing us with your God given gift. I certainly am not worthy.

Heal my US And those across the pond as well.

He is the most accomplished and complete musician on the planet, in my opinion. Plays any genre expertly, and is dedicated to preserving and elevating so many classics that seem to be going by the wayside. This performance is truly remarkable!

Spokesman for the common man, musician for humanity.

Wynton Marsalis sir, you are champion nf the world!

Wow! He is always right on, musically and fundamentally. Gets right to the heart of it.

Winton is a national treasure. I cherish all that he is and does.

KZread should NEVER remove this video. If KZread does not have a permanent collection of videos, then it needs one right now and this video needs to be in that collection immediately. Mr. Marsalis, you have been an inspiration to many. I am now one of your biggest fans. I just hope and pray that you are not playing "Taps" in the same hall on January 20, 2021. Thank you so very much for this video and for your playing. Wynton Marsalis for President!!!!

You are amazing as a musician and a human being, your soul has the correct fundamental values! Thanks 🙏🏻

Amazing and strikingly accurate comparisons between jazz and our society. Every note was played so wholeheartedly - always an inspiration as a musician and a human being.

Aww Wynton! I love the musical life metaphor! Small government and big band lol. Mr. Newton was a changed man - I pray we all would be! PS, love how the mouthpiece is molded into the leadpipe!

With greatness comes responsibilty. Wynton Marsalis is an inspration to everyone on the planet.

The amazing thing about the music world is that so few of us recognize the absolutely unchallenged greatness of Mr Marsalis as a trumpet player. So few musicians ever achieve his level of musical prowess. We are fortunate today to have many recordings and even video of great trumpet players like Raphael Mendez..... Dizzy Gillespie....Louis Armstrong....Harry James....Doc Severinsen....Chet Baker....Miles Davis.... Maurice Andre.....Clark Terry and countless others...yet we have Wynton today in his prime as a musician and don't seem to recognize his greatness.

Agreed. But we trumpet players who are teachers definitely know, and we are teaching our students about Wynton and the rest! Thanks for this, Gary!

Wynton doesn’t just HAVE class, he is the DEFINITION of American class.

That was beautiful! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Natural cathedral reverb! Thank you! 👍🏻🎸🍊

My third try at posting this (too old I guess). May God bless you always Wynton. You are a national treasure. And speaking of things Anglo Celtic, my parents were born in Ireland. We grew up in Brooklyn in the 60’s. But Mom was born a farm girl in Ireland without running water or electricity. In winter months, as a teenager, she would go to England to work as a domestic and send cash home (for a subsistence farmer, there is no better crop than cash). The slights she endured rolled down her back as water off a duck’s. She had her faith, her family, and dancing on the weekends - even during the blitz in London in World War II. Mom and Dad were dead before I could thank them for growing up in a home without bigotry. Dad was a bus driver, union activist, and good man. And while there were challenges growing up in Brooklyn (good friends with rough ways, alcohol, etc.) I had to enter the “real world” as a young lawyer before I heard words that would never have been tolerated in my father’s home. They remembered all too well the stings of being an “annie” or a “paddy” in England. And yes, even after a challenging childhood when many friends went astray, I eventually saw the light (through no merit of my own) and cannot hear Amazing Grace at Mass without tearing up, much to the embarrassment of my dear wife. We’ve been fans and attendees of JALC from the beginning and will always be (my father, RIP, was a great fan of Jazz). And while I never made much as a lawyer (I’m not complaining, I was able with my wife’s help to raise my sons to be fine gentlemen who now recommend music to me, and have all the LP’s I thought were useless!) I will always be a fan of JALC. And should a great fortune come into to my hands (at this stage it have to come from Lotto), then I will become a generous contributor to JALC. PS RIP Stanley Crouch, a master stylist with words as Wynton is with a horn, composing, and arranging.

Amen. Every year for Christmas we would bring our sons to the holiday concert of JALC, even when it was still at Lincoln Center. Wynton’s arrangement of the America’s genius Duke Ellington’s arrangement of the Nutcracker Suite was among the best things I ever saw/heard. (And by the way, RIP Stanley Crouch, a master with words as Wynton is a master with trumpet.) And before the “lockdown” destroyed the small Jazz clubs we would go about a dozen times a year to hear America’s Classical Music. And when Judgment Day comes and that roll is taken up there, Exhibit A for the value of America will be Jazz. The Ever Fonky Lowdown was great, great, great. Lesson? It’s all a hustle and one has to guard one’s soul from being sucked into the hustle.

Saw you back in 98 or so in Charlotte and the experience has been a part of me since. Amazing Grace has always been one of my faves, but you explaining where it came from, makes it more special. That’s what we all need. The ultimate revival

Beautiful! 😊

thank you wynton. has brought many tears to this old english cornet player and great blessings. god bless

gorgeous.

The way he bends the notes, it sounds like the nation crying. We are crying.

Great Artist educate while creating art . Wynton who I have heard live in an intimate setting is incandescent !
