Description:Deluxe two CD + DVD set. In 2008, nine-time Grammy Award winner Wynton Marsalis was commissioned to write a piece commemorating the 200th anniversary of Harlem's Abyssinian Baptist Church. The result was a sacred celebration: a sweeping composition for a big band and 70-piece gospel choir. In 2013, award-winning recording artist Damien Sneed and his choir, Chorale Le Chateau, joined the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis on a 16-city, 19-show tour across the American south and into deep dialogue with the African American history. Now, The Abyssinian Mass -Marsalis' first original recorded composition in six years - documents this piece's immense power to make audiences clap their hands and sing along to its joyous spirituality, its profound swing, and its bluesy swagger. This landmark album also includes a new essay from renowned public intellectual Leon Wieseltier and a bonus DVD documentary that features performances, interviews, and insights into the process behind The Abyssinian Mass. The album s exploration of the African American experience places it in the tradition of Marsalis's Pulitzer Prize-winning composition and record Blood on the Fields., Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet: Sherman Irby, Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Flute, Piccolo Flute, Clarinet: Ted Nash, Baritone Saxophone, Clarinet, Bass Clarinet: Paul Nedzela, Bass: Carlos Henriquez, Choir: Chorale Le Chateau, Conductor: Damien Sneed, Drums: Ali Jackson, Mastered By: Mark Wilder, Piano: Dan Nimmer, Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone: Walter Blanding, Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Bass Clarinet: Victor Goines, Trumpet: Kenny Rampton, Trumpet: Marcus Printup, Trumpet: Ryan Kisor, Trumpet, Composed By, Executive Producer: Wynton Marsalis, Labelcode BLEA4.2 (BE 0005), Phonographic Copyright (p) Jazz At Lincoln Center, Inc., Copyright (c) Jazz At Lincoln Center, Inc., Mastered At Battery Studios, New York, Glass Mastered At CDA ImPressing Solutions, USA, Glass Mastered At CDA ImPressing Solutions, USA, Glass Mastered At CDA ImPressing Solutions, USA
