Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I've never had anything but respect for Wynton. He's still the only musician to win a Grammy for jazz AND classical albums. But I still dislike just about everything about him. I don't think his "classical music is for dead white dudes" mentality is the right mindset, and I don't think the direction he's trying to move jazz in (especially in NYC) is the right way either.
That said, I would still buy a ticket to see him. He's possibly the best trumpet player in the world, and we can all learn something from him.
I used to idolize this man. Then I learned more about him and saw him in concert twice. In both concerts he made some back-handed racist remarks. I will no longer support him in any way.
So swingin'. Thanks!
Mirror anyone?
