MAX ROACH CENTENNIAL: THE JLCO WITH WYNTON MARSALIS

January 19 @ 8:00 pm ~January 20 @ 9:30 pm EST

$40 – $186

Max Roach transformed the sound of the drums and became a leader in civil rights and social justice activism. He defied limits, subverted roles, and innovated methods for improvisation and unbound freedom of expression. Profoundly — singularly — his artistry revolutionized how the drums communicate, and influenced the direction of live and recorded music.

Join the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis in celebration of this groundbreaking artist and American icon. Expect a transformative evening featuring new and hard-swinging arrangements of enduring repertoire from his seminal albums. Max Roach Centennial features music direction by Obed Calvaire, and special guest appearances by vocalist Shenel Johns and Chorale Le Chateau led by Chorus Master Damien Sneed.
