- Summary:
- 'If you put in the energy and the time you can learn to play classical music. Learning jazz is not as easy - it's like trying to catch a snake.' Trumpeter Wynton Marsalis was only 22 when he won coveted American Grammy Awards both for jazz and classical recordings. This film follows him to classical recordings in London with the English Chamber Orchestra, conducted by Raymond Leppard, to jazz dates in New York, and to the World Fair back in New Orleans where he grew up.
