 Superb June 5, 2015 By F Roger Snape (Bridgewater, NJ) See All My Reviews "I have admired Wynton Marsalis' musicianship ever since I bought his debut album including Haydn's trumpet concerto. It is impressive that his family has produced so many fine musicians. I regret that I did not hear his father perform in the Bermuda Festival earlier this year. I also regret that my taste for jazz is limited to Dixieland but I hope that THE ESSENTIAL WYNTON MARSALIS will broaden my horizons." Report Abuse
