Wynton Marsalis

We enact Wynton Marsalis's mission to maintain and elevate the substantive achievements of jazz in contemporary culture.

On this page, you will find exhibits celebrating some of his lifetime achievements as he turns 60. The volume and quality of his work is evidenced in compositions, recordings, books, education materials, lectures, films, and much more. Wynton has been an unrelenting advocate for the values represented in the three key pillars of Jazz: Improvisation, Swing, and the Blues.

Our presentation "Zero to Sixty: A Virtual Exhibition Celebrating Excellence" invites both long-time enthusiasts of Wynton's work and newcomers to explore Wynton's life and music.
