Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis will honor the legacy of Mingus, who was born in Arizona in April 1922, in a centenary performance with music direction by trombonist and composer Vincent Gardner. With a blend of swinging hard bop, Afro-Latin grooves, and deeply felt blues that characterized Mingus’ pen, the concert will demonstrate why Mingus’ music remains some of the most beloved jazz of all time.
