My sincere condolences to his sons, all who loved and knew Mr. Marsalis, and his students. Few have fostered and encouraged musical and artistic excellence with such impact. May he Rest In Peace.
@@@rodmact6548... I prefer the original version to yours, it´s a lot funnier. You squashed the joke with your "correction" . Furthermore, I very much doubt that hy agan was confused...he / she simply has an eagle eye for spotting humour in unexpected places.
Thanks for honoring this great man and musician. All jazz lovers and musicians have a debt to his work to spread the passion of jazz. We are all sad today.
Back a few years (decades??) ago, Hononegah High School in Rockton, Illinois opened a new performing arts center. The first act to perform there was Ellis Marsalis and Branford Marsalis. It was the best musical performance I have ever seen in my life and one I think back to often. I am glad to have had the opportunity to hear the two play. It is a memory I will hold on to for a long time. Thank you both for being there and for the music you allow us, the audience, to share with you that night. Ellis may no longer be with us, but his music from that evening is still playing in my ears and my head. Thank you.
A TRUE Genius!! R.I.P., brother!! You made an indelible impression on the American art form and you will forever be remembered!! God bless your soul!!!💕💯
My condolences to the Marsalis family. My prayers go out to you. Thank you for the endless inspiration and education you have given our nation. We are very blessed.
Heartfelt condolences to the Marsallis family. Ellis has influenced my love and appreciation for jazz for thirty years. He was not only a great musician but a kind Southern gentleman. He will be sorely missed.
I discovered Ellis Marsalis as a teenager through Branford and Wynton's music. I'd grown up on rock music, but discovered Jazz which made me much more serious about studying and practicing. Thank you Ellis and all the Marsalis family for inspiring young musicians to explore the beauty of Jazz music...
Thank you for making this world a better (and swingin') place Mr. Marsalis. May you forever rest in peace 🎼🎶❤️ Sincerest condolences to the entire Marsalis family.
Rest in peace Ellis. I came across you in the late 90s through my best friend when he played Joe Cool's Blues. I have listened to that recording over and over again and I hope you continue to leep Peppermint Patty happy.
I saw Ellis Marsalis last performance at the New Orleans Jazz Festival last year, with all of his sons. Amazing show. Condolences to the entire Marsalis family. His legacy will continue.
My deepest condolences to the Marsalis family and the city of New Orleans. Mr. Marsalis is a pantheon of one of one of the country's greatest art forms contributed to world culture, and a national treasure. He will be missed by fans, students, and loved ones alike.
I'm not into jazz...but, when music involves the Maraslis Family, count me in to listen to the whole concert. My condolences to the Survivors of Mr. Ellis Maraslis, Jr. What a brilliant man and educator.
The jazz world lost a titan. The music educators world lost a titan. Thank you Mr Marsalis for making your indelible mark in the world of music. Terence, your boys and Harry (amongst countless others) carry the torch that you’ve given them... and all of us. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.....
I have spent many hours listening to Mr Marsalis play the piano. He was a great musician and it sounds like an even greater person and father. My most sincere condolences to his family.
Bless you Ellis - may your Soul fly! You gave us Music and Inspiration, and your talented Family inspires us as well! Seeds planted. Nourishment grows!
This is heavy on so many levels, fatherhood, education, obviously music, embracing both sides of an idea. This one is hard my condolences to the family, my heart to nola, a soft notefor the music world.
All my feelings to this great family. How great the contibution to american culture. How sad the loss of a father, great musician and teacher. May god bless you.
Can’t believe it .... was just listening to Branford’s album “Loved Ones” ( with his Dad ) just a week ago with such endearment ... after such a Long Long time .... it was like the universe was nudging me ... hey ! And then I found out about his passing today 😢 Brilliant pianist ! Thank you for all the good times and getting me through the bad ones too ! 😢
Wow. So sorry to hear this news, my thoughts and prayers are with the Marsalis family. We lost one of our greats but in light of things, he left us with his brilliant lessons and his wonderful sons. R.I.P. Mr. Marsalis
I tuned for him at the Lincoln Theatre in Columbus, Ohio not long ago. I talked to him briefly afterwards and mentioned that I had one of his cd's. A real gentleman and a real talent.
The legacy of Mister Marsalis lives on through the creative genius of his sons for generations to come. The world is grateful for what this family has done to share its artistic creativity with us. 🙏🏾🌹
A great loss to his family and the jazz community. Rest in Peace Mr. Ellis Marsalis -you gave the world many great gifts, not the least of which is your sons.
I was shocked to hear of his passing today. Thank-you for sharing your sons, your talents, and your students' talents with the world. Now you are among the pantheons of other jazz giants who have gone before you. . .McCoy Tyner; Oscar Peterson; Monk; etc.
Just to clarify, because the video isn't dated--Mr Marsalis received the Lincoln Center award for artistic excellence in 2019. Condolences to all who loved music.
I feel the same as everyone else here. Ellis Marsalis left a tremendous legacy and was an example everyone should follow, whether they're involved in music or not. I recognize the voice of the narrator of this video, but I'm trying to identify who it is. Natalie Cole, perhaps?

Always sad when an educator passes away; yet, his teachings remain.

Rest In Power to Pops Marsalis. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Godfather Marsalis is the Carl Sagan of Jazz; if we subtract this one person America is a very different place. Mood: Indigo.
I love that comparison. I'll be sure to screenshot your name so that I give proper credit when I use it.
Rest in Peace Mr Ellis

He is with Mr Rogers in Heaven now.
