[@mexton]

What a great man and bright upcoming musicians.I love listening to Wyntons wisdom.

[@Django44]

What a wonderful, humble human being, inspiring teacher and superb role model.

[@oselini]

Wynton for President!

[@TboneWertman]

This really need to be scene by every Jazz player. No matter what age. As a jazz performance major on trombone at FSU, this answered so many things I've been contemplation as a musician and a person.

[@SuperBettyBoo57]

I never tire of listening to Wynton, speaking or playing!!! Yeaaaah Wynton for PRESIDENT!!!!!!

"4-Sho!!!!"

[@JamieJobb]

Not only is Wynton Marsalis one of America's top composers, he's also one great coach. This video is so valuable for insights into his life in music and what's that's worth for the rest of us, particularly young music students. At least watch his story about the smallest musician who inspired him with only one note (starts at 29:00). Also see his epic "Congo Square" in performance: Wynton Marsalis - Congo Square (Montreal) Not only does Wynton Marsalis "get it" ... he shares it with the rest of us. Thanks so much!

AS ALWAYS GREAT

[@mused1019]

A fantastic Q&A session. A highlight came early on when Wynton states " We don't believe in segregation by generation"! I just thought this was a gem of a statement to make within this context, because so often the artificial divide of age holds back what one person can learn from another.

[@francesmoore1990]

Wynton, we said hello to you at The Granada Theater, Santa Barbara CA. We said, we are the Ring Shouters, Your response was, I know Ring Shout, show me the beat, we started singing and clapping right there at the elevator, Will you perform Ring Shout next time you are here?

[@Altopixel]

SUBTITLES SPANISH PLEASEEEEEEEEE! TANKS !!!

[@gopeace4797]

Blues shuffles have syncopation and improvisation does that make them jazz?

[@trollza21]

Well a shuffle is a development on the swing feel, so it ticks the 3 checkmarks, so i guess.

[@dawsonredenius2359]

Duke Ellington had shuffles. Many many great jazz musicians composed shuffles. “Blues shuffles” seems broad. But I think I know what you mean... if you interpret it AS jazz, then it is. If you interpret it as a separate kind of music, then it is. I don’t know.

[@RAevenman]

This really lifts me up as a young musician, on an often very lonely journey.

[@RAevenman]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

[@DrTonyaBreauxShropshire]

Agreed. Viewing with family on Christmas 2021. Very nice.
