It's wonderful how Wynton presents some complex musical topics in readily accessible ways. Highlighting the fundamentals can help musicians at any stage of development. Thank you for sharing these videos and all of the beautiful music en francais! I'll echo Phillip by commenting that Luigi has done an outstanding job expanding the content of this site!

I also teach music, and my students are well aware of Wynton. This is another fine example of Wynton's many contributions to music education. No one has inspired me to teach and made me want to play my horn more than Mr. Marsalis. Many thanks to the team for this and all of the other fantastic content on this website!

As a tenor saxophone student since some twenty years (you never stop to learn, isn't it?) I'm afraid I'm still playing Now's The Time too straight and we all know It Don't Mean A Thing (...); I very much appreciate your clear, if albeit 'interruptus' by the translations, sketch about the origins of 'jazz' music, and your deep as always insight in styles and tempos; since I'm still lost in the labyrinth of harmony, and stumbling in and out of rhythm, I found very helpful you're shedding this swinging bright light on us all!
