The Philadelphia Orchestra joins forces with Wynton Marsalis and Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra (JLCO) for an unforgettable concert experience. Combining the quintessential sounds of the orchestra with the amazing rhythmic, heart-pulsing beats that only jazz can create, this thrilling and swingin’ performance marks the first time that The Philadelphia Orchestra and Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra have collaborated. The program will feature Swing Symphony, Marsalis’s third symphonic work, which he describes as a symphonic meditation on the evolution of swing.
