I really enjoyed the symphony. I know (first hand experience…) that Marsalis can be a polarizing figure in the jazz world but he can play and he does take you places as a writer.

And it was nice to see the Phil members sweat! It’s funny because at one point during the performance I turned to my wife and said “Boy, I would have loved to have heard a rehearsal for this piece…”

What a great gift to NY this was. The audience this morning was full of jazz listeners who were newcomers to the NY Phil…you could tell because they applauded individual riffs and applauded after each movement, something the hard-core rehearsal audience wouldn’t dream of doing. Welcome jazz fans! [Marsalis was brilliant; let's have more.]
