Movie Reviews of The Marsalis Family - A Jazz Celebration
Movie Review: "standing ovation for two generations ~ Marsalis Family"
Summary: 5 Stars
History, musical history was made on August 4, 2001 the gathering of the clan ~ the Marsalis clan. Head master Ellis Marsalis invited his siblings (Branford, Delfeayo, Jason and Wynton) and musical family (Lucien Barbarin, Roland Guerin and Harry Connick Jr.) a montage of "Jazz" coming at you with "THE SURREY WITH THE FRINGE ON TOP", "AFTER" and "SULTRY SERENADE" ~ and you're loving every moment of it. A wonderful composition by Branford "CAIN & ABEL", with the entire family bringing home a winning performance. This was a program made in heaven ~ from the opening to the final curtain. Connick's version of "SAINT JAMES INFIRMARY", is a classic performance with Barbarin on trombone, takes the audience right up to infirmary and the blues. If that's not enough, Connick and the gang go right into "LIMEHOUSE BLUES", remember this tune from a Fred Astaire film in the late '40s.Here are my picks for highlights ~ "NOSTALGIC IMPRESSIONS", sweet, close and tingling harmony make up this cue, this gig comes right up grabs you ~ "STRUTTIN' WITH SOME BARBECUE" composed by the late Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong no jazz concert would be complete without it ~ every musician is in top form and having the time of their life ~ and they received a standing ovation ~ as Ellis points out if it wasn't for this man what would America be playing today ~ this is a tribute to Armstrong and the man ~ humble, talented and wonderful human being. And so it is with the Marsalis Family ~ "The Best of the Best", a once in a lifetime event ~ and we had a front row seat.
