Wynton Marsalis with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra

Jazz at Lincoln Center's Artistic Director, founder and bandleader Wynton Marsalis has composed for every type of ensemble, but has written some of his most compelling music for quintets and septets. For Jazz at Lincoln Center's 2009-10 season, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra will join Wynton's quintet, with tenor saxophonist Walter Blanding, as the trumpeter-composer guides us through some of his most spellbinding pieces. Special guests include the sensational tap dancer Jared Grimes.
