It's Day 7 of Second Discmas, and we're thrilled to bring you a remarkable new box set from a legend of jazz!
Wynton Marsalis‘ Swinging Into the 21st is a comprehensive 10-album, 11-CD box set containing career highlights hand-picked by the trumpeter, composer, bandleader and arranger to illuminate each facet of his history! Marsalis selected the material on Swinging to celebrate his 50th birthday this October 18. His diverse selections from his large catalogue include two volumes of his Standard Time, 1999′s original film music collection Reel Time, 2000′s The Marciac Suite and Selections from the Village Vanguard Box, and 2002′s All Rise, plus A Fiddler's Tale, At the Octoroon Balls, Big Train, Sweet Release & Ghost Story! Each title is packaged in a mini-LP replica sleeve, and a 32-page booklet features full credits and a statement by Marsalis himself.
