Hey Wynton,
Really enjoyed your concert this past Friday at the Tennessee Theater.
You mentioned how pretty the view was from the stage. After the show I walked down front, you were right it is beautiful. That little walk triggered a long lost memory, I remembered being a usher in this theater in 1958. I would make sure to come to work early Sunday mornings because that was when the cleaning crew would get the theater ready for the matinee crowd. When they finished, they would roll the piano out on stage and rock the house with some good old gospels. After all these years, it’s still one of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
Thanks for the memory.
Wayne

Wynton,
I am looking forward to sharing your life and legacy of music with youngsters of all ages. Currently, I am launching a charter school targeting a multi-cutural group of children ranging in ages 3-10. There will be centers of the arts, science, technology, ect. I want to name the arts center with your permission and support the “Marsalis Arts Center.”
As my cousin and truly admired American icon I want to honor you and the entire Marsalis family in a way where music can be branded in the life of children at an early age. I am sending you some literature concerning the intent for launching such a school of this magnitude.
Your Cousin,
Dr. Burnell T. Williams
