Recorded: 28 June, 2007, Montreal Jazz Festival
Wynton Marsalis pays homage to his hometown of New Orleans in Congo Square, a ground breaking suite celebrating Congo Square's unique role in shaping American music.
Long before New Orleans' fabled red light district Storyville became famous as an incubator of jazz, legend has it that in the 1700s and 1800s the Congo Square market behind the French Quarter was the only public place in America where African slaves were allowed to perform their own music. Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with African master drummer Yacub Addy and Odadda! revisits this bedrock of jazz and blues where the earliest African styling's first entered American music. This fascinating project reacquaints every strain in the evolution of jazz from Dixieland through swing and funk with its African roots as first heard in Congo Square.
This dynamic 2 hour performance of Congo Square at the 2007 Montreal Jazz Festival features, along with Marsalis, Jazz at Lincoln Center's other outstanding soloists. Odadaa! is made up of nine musicians performing on drums, flutes, balaphones and bells. Whichever group is playing, the performance is filled with the improvising spirit at the root of jazz.
Congo Square is a musical tribute to New Orleans composed and performed by Wynton Marsalis, trumpet master from New Orleans and Yacub Addy, an African master drumer -- a unique collaboration where a Lincoln Center's great jazz orchestra mingles with an African percussion ensemble in a 2 hour concert of original music filmed at the 2007 Montreal Jazz Festival. |
