During one extraordinary week, from December 15th – 19th, Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis will join the Ailey dancers onstage for Ailey/Jazz, a joyous live music celebration of America’s two great art forms – modern dance and jazz music – and two great jazz artists – Duke Ellington and Dizzy Gillespie. The program features the first full production of Three Black Kings in over 30 years, resulting from Alvin Ailey’s legendary collaboration with the great Duke Ellington, and The Winter In Lisbon, Billy Wilson’s tribute to Dizzy Gillespie and the four-decade career of this consummate jazz musician.
