He just keeps going and ...

Trumpeter Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra make two stops on their swing through the Southland this weekend. Which is lucky, since Marsalis sometimes seems to be the Energizer Bunny of jazz -- he never stops. He has been the artistic director of Jazz at Lincoln Center for 13 years. And in October, he presided over the opening of his orchestra’s new home, the Frederick P. Rose Hall in Manhattan, a venue that is being touted as the first facility ever created specifically for jazz. Also in October, Marsalis released a CD of his original score for Ken Burns’ PBS documentary “Unforgivable Blackness: The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson” (which premiered this week on television). In December, he debuted his new “Suite for Human Nature” in Washington, D.C. And 2005 finds Marsalis on the road for a national tour.
