“I remember when Roger (Ingram) couldn’t make some dates a few years ago. I called Wynton (Marsalis) and asked him for some suggestions. ‘Nobody plays as high as Roger’ he said. I went through the usual substitutes – the finest players in the world, I might add – to come to a determination: Wynton was right. Nobody plays as high, or as well as Roger…” – Harry Connick Jr.
