Part of Hancher's Golden Anniversary Season

All Rise, a monumental work by Wynton Marsalis, is the cornerstone of Hancher’s 50th anniversary season. The architecture of the piece is progressive—it represents a series of events and blends the sounds of jazz, blues, classical, and indigenous music from around the world to represent humanity’s enduring ascendance over time. All Rise is a celebration of shared responsibility and resilience. Working together to improve our communities, we can all rise up to meet challenges as we pursue social justice, a shared sense of well-being, and a sustainable future.

In May and June, 2022, Hancher presented Swing University: All Rise, taught by Seton Hawkins, Director of Public Programs and Education Resources at Jazz at Lincoln Center.  This free four-week online course introduced All Rise and explored its many joys and influences. Rewatch parts 2-4 of the online series through the links below. This content will be available through Sunday, October 23, 2022
