“ … the most magical thing about standards [is they] communicate well to the novice as well as the experienced jazz listener, which is the perfect audience, primarily because at the moment of communication, all knowledge becomes equal." ~Wynton Marsalis

Selected from Wynton’s recordings made between 1983 and 1999, this collection is a mix of timeless standards and some of his originals, including “Stardust,” “Embraceable You,” and “Spring Yaounde.” Among the finest musicians who are featured in these recordings include his father Ellis and brother Branford, and Ron Carter (bass), Kenny Kirkland (piano) and Lewis Nash (drums).
