Jazz At Lincoln Center Orchestra

The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra (JLCO) is an American professional big band that is produced by Jazz at Lincoln Center, a major performing arts institution structured as a non-profit organization that is housed in its own facility at the Time Warner Center in Manhattan, New York. Wynton Marsalis is the artistic director for Jazz at Lincoln Center, Inc., and director of and trumpeter with the Orchestra. The orchestra was founded in 1988 as part of the Lincoln Center’s summer concert series, "Classical Jazz." In 1991 the JLCO became the resident and touring big band for Jazz at Lincoln Center. The orchestra commissions works, which by early 2000, surpassed 60 by composers that include Benny Carter, Benny Golson, Gerry Mulligan, Geri Allen, Marcus Roberts, Melba Liston, and John Lewis. –––––––––––––––––––– Current members Wynton Marsalis, music director, trumpet Ryan Kisor, trumpet Marcus Printup, trumpet Kenny Rampton, trumpet Vincent Gardner, trombone Chris Crenshaw, trombone Elliot Mason, trombone Sherman Irby, alto saxophone Ted Nash, alto & soprano saxophones, clarinet Walter Blanding, Jr., tenor & soprano saxophones, clarinet Victor Goines, tenor & soprano saxophones, Bb clarinet, bass clarinet Paul Nedzela, baritone saxophone, bass clarinet Dan Nimmer, piano Carlos Henriquez, bass Ali Jackson, drums –––––––––––––––––––– Former members Sean Jones, trumpet Seneca Black, trumpet Rodney Whitaker, bass Wycliffe Gordon, trombone Ron Westray, trombone Wessell "Warmdaddy" Anderson, alto & soprano saxophones Todd Williams, soprano & tenor saxophones, clarinet Branford Marsalis, saxophone Gideon Feldstein, baritone saxophone, bass clarinet Joe Temperley, baritone & soprano saxophones, bass clarinet Eric Reed, piano Eric Lewis, piano Reginald Veal, bass Ben Wolfe, bass Herlin Riley, drums, percussion Robert Sadin, conductor Russell Gunn, trumpet Roger Ingram, trumpet Wayne Goodman, trombone Rob Stewart, tenor saxophone James Carter, baritone saxophone, bass clarinet, clarinet Michael Ward, violin Tours The JLCO has made several tours of the United States, first toured Europe in 1995, performed in Russia in 1999, and toured China, Taiwan, Japan, and Australasia in 2000.
