Celebrating 30 Years of Jazz at Lincoln Center
A brief look back over 30 year history of this New York City institution.
Jazz at Lincoln Center-Rock Chalk Suite
It’s been said that basketball is like jazz—but Rock Chalk Suite takes the comparison to another level entirely. Written and recorded by the musicians of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis, each of the suite’s high-flying 15 movements takes inspiration from a different University of Kansas hoops legend.
As Marsalis says, both basketball and jazz “reward improvisation and split-second decision making against the pressure of time,” and the JLCO’s masterful composers have turned the Jayhawks’ rich basketball history into a stylish slam dunk of an album.
Wadada Leo Smith-America's National Parks
A cinematic translation of a masterpiece. This performance film utilizes live video synthesis and historic montage to explore the intersection of nature, culture, and civil rights. A powerful, wordless suite that conveys the vastness of the American landscape and the intimacy of the musical moment with live visuals created by video artist Jesse Gilbert blending live footage of the five-piece band with historic imagery in a powerful and collaborative vision.
