Wow, this is brilliant and when Wynton and the flute player are trading fours, it’s an actual conversation, just good conversation, classy and in depth

[@ghostbops4045]

Thanks for your beautiful insight on what they were doing, URMOM COULDNTRESISTTHEBBC

[@MoLandavazo]

Never been a flute guy, but this dude kills it.

[@mjcau]

Yep, the finest fluting (is that a word? 😅) that I have ever seen. Not only does he play things that look like they should be impossible, but sounds amazing while doing it too!

[@lmwilliamsjr1]

Duke Ellington wasn’t much of flute guy either so you don’t find it in many of his compositions including this one

[@danielmok3762]

That flute playing... getting Wynton’s respect says it all.

[@charltonlee20]

True!

[@legm5298]

Dude is a boss

[@SteveCunio]

Man that flautist has seriously good skills!

[@paulnebenzahl702]

Baqar Abbas is a genius of the flute, way up there with the finest Western musicians. Startling at times to listen to his music.

[@natesvideos7339]

The trading between the tabla player and the drummer was also amazing

[@jeroendronkers6288]

When I watch this I see a bunch of great musicians playing with their souls, not thinking about war or anything like that. I wished everybody would be as peaceful as these guys.

[@ReckoningGD]

When I heard that flute lick for the first time, I had to stop what I was doing because my mind just went: "What in the actual f*** was that..." Seeing the smile and appreciation of Wynton as it happened makes it all so much better. Just imagine for a moment the combined talent on that stage, so many tens of thousands of hours of hard practice, passion and pure dedication to make these moments as good as they can be. What a gift, we should be grateful.

[@Dj.pricee]

I think Dan Nimmer’s solo is extremely underrated he literally creates a triad chord that changes his run for his own amusement just to bring everyone together 🏆🏆🏆👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

[@Threepi80]

No clue why, but the flute and the sitar bring tears to my eyes when they're "talking" with Wynton... Ridiculously good.

[@ncrieser1]

The flute work is amazing - Wynton loves it but at 3:45 the finger wag says "y'all steppin' on my solo lines a bit too long..." :-)

[@trngfr]

Listened to Marsalis-Sachal Jazz Ensamble version of "Limbo Jazz" a thousand time and I never get tired of listening to it again and again... Simply beautiful!

[@zzausel]

I cannot believe that humans are killing themselves in war. West and East are playing so loving.

[@billdutnall5311]

Never think Carlos gets enough praise. Cool, relaxed always in control and laying it down (it seems) without a break. Any genre, any tempo, any time signature. He is there. FAB YOU LOUS.

[@nusratyarahmad3994]

It is amazing how the two cultures synchronize

[@Rogomans_1stFan]

Duke Ellington would be very proud of this interpretation!

[@louispatrick421]

8:25 is magic! This is why jazz is such a great art form

[@peaceaffinity]

Just magical 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 memories of the Lincoln Center :::: I used to go to see him on Saturdays::: New York was a bubbly fun of joy 😢 and good times :::: Wynton Marsalis do not stop ::: let’s drink wine Waoooo 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

[@arts4691]

The Flute player is my absolute favourite - plays more musical than many flute players on conventional flutes.... - that all melts together so stellar ... highlite...

[@darylmichael7]

What masters do when they vibe. Bravo!

[@loufip4374]

I believe that Mr. Ellington would have loved this. Thank you.

[@timeisnow4116]

One of the most interestingly satisfying piano solos my soul has ever heard. Amen

[@ncrieser1]

Righto. At 7:05 Wynton says "that's what I'm talkin' about"... Yup.

[@someguy007]

Very beautiful indeed. I hear some Ahmad Jamal flavors.

Loved the playful conversation! These guys are in a higher dimension of intelligence that I can only guess, makes my Sunday evening a joy in the meantime.

[@intooctavarium]

[@armandopace8559]

Marsalis has great admiration to Duke ... In this track we can clearly hear how Wynton loves the old acoustic jazz.

Very entertaining clip! Absolutely love the exchanges between Wynton and the flutist. Looks like the conductor and the percussionist had a little trouble keeping the form though. Ali and Carlos had a short laugh about it. lol

I heard Indo-Jazz fusions live in the 1960s who pioneered the mix of jazz and Indian music. Always a great mix because both rely on improvisation.

[@jmbermea]

I heard this like one and a half years ago while on youtube. I liked it so much I put it in a special playlist I only put music that really reaches to me. Without even realizing it until now, it hit me that my jazz band is playing this same piece that I put into my playlist long ago. I fell in love with a different arrangement of the same piece but still loved the simplistic melody both of the "first times" I heard it. Music is great.
