Wynton Marsalis

Wynton Marsalis appears at Konserthuset, joined by the legendary Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra – an ensemble of some of today’s finest jazz musicians.

Since 1988, the orchestra has been the heart of Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York, based at Frederick P. Rose Hall – “The House of Swing”. Under Marsalis’s direction, the ensemble has developed a repertoire spanning from the historical roots of jazz to newly composed works. Here, music by Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Thelonious Monk meets new compositions and arrangements – including those by Marsalis himself. A festive seasonal atmosphere is promised for this concert.
