- Delve into Wynton Marsalis's six-part Harvard University lecture series, covering a range of topics including jazz, what it means to be American, and the importance of cultural literacy and the arts in the liberal arts education.
XII. How the Rhythm Section Swings
In this chapter, Wynton outlines the roles and responsibilities of each member of the rhythm section.
Go to jazz.org/wyntonatharvard for the complete series.
"Hidden in Plain View: Meanings in American Music" is a series of six lectures delivered at Harvard University between 2011 and 2014 sponsored by the Office of the President and Provost. The inaugural lecture, “Music as Metaphor,” was delivered in Sanders Theatre to a capacity crowd. It is an interpretation of the many unobserved symbols in American music and an investigation into how they illuminate the democratic process.
It covers many of the fundamental devices, forms, and songs that bind the different Americas together at the root. It is Marsalis's contention that "'Me vs. You' and 'Us vs. Y'all'-vs. 'All of Us'-remains the struggle at the heart of humankind and the central debate of our Constitution. How do we achieve a common ground when individual victories are so much more valued? This conundrum has been resolved harmoniously in our musical arts for more than a century. Under the vibrant din of our democracy, on the lower frequencies, sonic metaphors speak to and for us all. What they tell us about what it means to be American could serve us well in these divisive and uncivil times."
Performances by Marsalis's ensemble (with special guest, the iconic fiddler Mark O'Connor) punctuate the lecture with musical explanations.
Mark O’Connor - fiddle
Walter Blanding - reeds
James Chirillo - guitar
Dan Nimmer - piano
Carlos Henriquez - bass
Ali Jackson - drums

easily the most important lecture on American music I've ever heard.
The whole series is fantastic. It covers the music theory and the culture behind it. Jazz is really the ultimate American genre since it's a melting pot.
James is unbelievably cool in this video. So casual but so foundational. The rhythm section is the key to everything in jazz.
This series needs to be presented in its entirety. One video. Free for everyone.
Understand that this is what will unite us: above all else, a sense of rhythm. A feeling we all know in one form or another.
100% agree.
The guitarist is staring directly into your soul
Wynton left out this crucial portion of swing education
Jazz is the ultimate form of musical expression. No other genre allows that much room for self-expression.
I love this!!! Find myself going back to this video over-and-over again! 👏👏👏
bass comes in: 0:13
Guitar comes in 0:30, 0:42
Piano comes in 0:46
Drums comes in 1:03

I love jazz. Among a lot of things, it´s great car music. Driving a long, with a good sound system, cruising the highway, listening to jazz, it cures a lot of things :)
Swing it sure does! Who can live without jazz!
I marvel at how I can go to a site and I will hear an interesting piece of music that opens up a broader opportunity for me to listen learn and expand my musical ear. I am not a musician couldn't carry a note in a brown paper bag if I tried you just know it when you hear it, good is just good. Does not matter want musical genre it is based on its just good and even more delightful when you have excellence playing their instruments.
Just so cool!
¡¡ MARAVILLOOOOOOOOOOOOSOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!
Interesting to note is that Wynton's solo didn't take from the Rhthym section even though it was his featured part of the piece.
