  1. I was also wondering about whether Wynton will play or conduct this year in Congo Square. It would seem that the difficult cues have been mastered by these professionals at this point, although playing on the bell always poses a challenge with staying in the time. Also, they have to arrange the suite to fit within a festival set time frame. James Zollar did a fine job in first trumpet chair last year, he has this distinctive raw sound that can scream at times. I would just love to hear Mr. Marsalis give it a whirl, his energy can change the whole quality of a composition (and this is his incredible composition).

  3. Dear Larry,
    you should check our tour section.

    As you can imagine, we don’t know when Wynton could play again in Massachusetts or Connecticutt.

    Anyway we’ll publish every new date as soon as it’s available.

    Bests, Luigi
