Wynton is such a beautiful dude, he never forgot where he came from , and his entiire life and career has only added to and embelished the memory of our most beloved Son....Satchmo Armstrong. This really captures the sound and feel of New Orleans even as far away as London. Right on Wynton!!

My mother requested this when I was approx. 10 and when she passed 30 years later, we fulfilled the promise. I still remember the audible gasp of hundreds of doctors, lawyers, teachers, civil servants when I announced what awaited them outside the chapel. Following a horse drawn carriage carrying my mom when "The Saints" played was healing to my soul and everyone else. Even more healing that it's true. That's the way I want to go out as well.
+Christopher Williams sure is a a beautiful service.
This gave me goosebumps.
You are a good son! Mom is proud.
Your Mum sounded like a great lady and credit to you for picking such great music.
Hallelujah Brother!
Not a mourning of death, but a celebration of life. This is how I want to be processed out.
One of my favorite songs performed by one of the best, Mr. Wynton Marsalis. Sounds strange but I love these jazz funerals. They celebrate life.
Happy are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
What a beautiful and dignified performance!
This video is also a great teaching tool to show young musicians how jazz musicians communicate the music with each other. Notice how just a simple gesture, such as raising the bell of his horn signaled something to the rest of them. Pointing a finger up let everyone know they were going to transpose it up a step. Wynton shouted out A-flat (the key the next song would be played in). He even gets the drummers back on track when they were in three (the meter) and the piece had changed to four. Great stuff
I knew Abram, personally, and was so glad that he lived and blessed us with his gift and gave me my first string of gigs in London, from one fellow American to another. Classy guy who left too soon but so glad that I got to perform with him the times that I did.
I realize people commenting are mostly focused on the music, if not other artists or topics, but I wanted to pay respect and acknowledge the whole point of this video and spirit of Abram Wilson.
Rest well, friend, and God bless his family.
Well said
I didn't know him or his music. But if these were his friends he was a loan from God to the world.
Yes, there are "other artists" all celebrating the life of their dear friend. I think that sentiment is hard to miss. I'm sorry for your loss and that of his family.
This is what I want my funeral to be. This is the perfect song.
Way to send a brother off ! Funny thing is I often watch those jazz funeral videos to cheer me up !
+SoundboyEric Same here, that's a strange mix of feelings.
+Mehdi F hmm glad I'm not the only one
remonter le moral?? C'est fait pour ça la musique non ? - enfin , ça l'était, au " bon vieux temps " hahaha !!!

It's more "I'm glad he was here" than "I 'm sorry he's gone "
I just played this at my dog Buddy's funeral procession. God bless you soulful movers and shakers. This music is pure joy in my time of deep sorrow.
A Second Line in London. That must have been a first. Beautiful.
Yes it was and i missed it.
This was London?
@@jesuischarlie6381 Yes, St. Johns is on the south bank of the River Thames, near Waterloo Station. Which made "Down by the Riverside" all the more appropriate.
@@TheSpikehereI was trying to figure out how in New Orleans there would be all these confused and fascinated white folks looking like they’d never seen a second line before. I get it now.
It's got the right amount of sadness with just as much happiness!!!!
R.I.P. Abram. Thanks for this great send-off! I felt like I was right there! Respect!!
wow honestly that is one of the coolest most moving things i have ever seen and heard in my life , what an incredible tribute there dear friend Abram Wilson he would of be looking down and listening and dancing to that in heaven
I didn't know this happened. Abram was one of our best and brightest lights at Ohio Wesleyan. He was a freshman my very first year there in 1991. I'm so happy he had this send off. Thanks gentlemen.
Bravissimi!!! Un buon ricordo. Per Abram Wilson, grazie.
I have wanted to see Wynton Marsalis since my freshman year of college!! he's so amazing
the most beautiful way to say hello at the life..great !
Sergio Augelloni Fabbri right on!
MERCI POUR CETTE BELLE CÉRÉMONIE EN L'HONNEUR DU TROMPETTISTE ABRAM WILSON , UN HOMMAGE TRÈS ÉMOUVANT.J'ADMIRE CETTE FRATERNITÉ.
Grazie MAESTRO!!!!
Un grande saluto da un comportamento di una banda musicale di Genova
E siete superlativi!!
🎼❤🎼
What a send off! I am sure that the departed is in Heaven still smiling and playing along with the musicians. I have always said that when my time comes I would love a New Orleans funeral. Don't think it will happen. Just a thought.
The death can even stand up an enjoy this before to leave. Miles Davis, wynton Marsialis, tx for your lives.
beautiful, I love this parade is extraordinary, joy, sharing, love, friendship, emotions that arise from this music. Thank you for this good time spent with you. Friendship of France. Michelle
Wynton plays the trumpet like drinking water so natural.
ready to die to get a funeral like this!!
Steve Sam lol
wow!
Thats nothing. ome New Orleans and see the deal
Only if I get the funeral before I die.
We've lost so many great jazz musicians... I'm glad though to see their lives celebrated like this. Had to break out my horn and play along when they started to play Amazing Grace, just starting to learn the trumpet myself so I don't know many tunes yet - but it was nice to join them there for a bit.
Just beautiful. I enjoy this so much. Look at Wyton he’s having so much fun the same all the musicians they have a beautiful spirit
to every jazz video I hear I discover the true meaning of playing an instrument.
What a beautiful procession. Brings tears of joy as my mother loved these old spirituals.
Sounds so Nawwleans! Oh my goodness!!
Beautiful.
The spirit of Mr Wilson surely floated surely up to Heaven.
God being praised
Jesus Christ Is Lord !!!
RESPECT
I was lucky enough to be in NYC when I caught a cakewalk coming down the East Side of the Park, only it was for a wedding and not a funeral....sometimes there's no difference😂 I am sure any couple willing to do that has at least a chance though. Certainly made my day. What a great American tradition.
Congratulations on a great ceremony here from Maryann in Ohio glad to join in and all the spirituals here. Thank you, Wynton Marsalis.
I love this! Praise the Lord.
I have never heard sounds like that great keep it up
I had no idea melodicas would be part of a brass ensemble! This is beautiful.
Some much love I hear and see. Just Great to see theses amazing musicians parading like that with such humility. Warms up my heart
Great Gospel music! Ain’t gonna study no more!!!
Baby, they can second line me all the way to the grave. As my old daddy used to say, "Lawd, Lawd!!!"
