Two icons of the American south--the outlaw country legend Willie Nelson and the trumpet virtuoso Wynton Marsalis--bring their own brand of the blues to bear in this powerful Lincoln Center concert. Each musician offers his unique style and perspective to the songs at hand, resulting in a moving blend of jazz and country that reinvigorates standards such as "Georgia On My Mind," "Stardust," and "Don't Get Around Much Anymore."
