Please join 2025 Park School Resident Scholar Wynton Marsalis for an evening conversation about music, America, and the power of art. Park welcomes Mr. Marsalis to campus for a two-part engagement: his residency in our Upper School, and the open-to-the public speaking engagement on February 11.
Wynton Marsalis is a world-renowned trumpeter, bandleader, composer, and a leading advocate of American culture. He currently serves as Managing and Artistic Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center, the Director of Jazz Studies at The Juilliard School, and President of the Louis Armstrong Educational Foundation. Mr. Marsalis has lectured widely about meaning in American music, and has been a strong voice and advocate for the significance of jazz and improvisation in the development of the American aesthetic.
As the 2025 Park School Resident Scholar, Mr. Marsalis will be presenting to our entire Upper School student body in a special assembly on Wednesday, February 12, and will conduct small-session Master Classes for Upper School students. In addition, he is making time during his residency to connect with our 4th through 8th Grade students. Thank you to the Park Parents’ Association for sponsoring the Resident Scholar program for more than 30 years.
