"Big Band Holidays III" is back!
The latest @jazzdotorg Orchestra Christmas album is now available again on all major digital platforms. If you’re in the mood for some seasonal swing, give it a listen.
I’ve also gathered all six of my Christmas albums in one place, from small-group sets to big band recordings, with a range of arrangements we’ve explored over the years: https://t.co/fmEMN8dHgW
This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.
I am not fearful — I am fearless.
We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights.

A good word on today from THEE Reverend Al Sharpton.
Doing what we do best, no matter the odds against us. And looking mighty dandy while at it.

Dawn Staley on the legacy she hopes to leave: “My mother grew up in South Carolina. This was the 1940s and early ’50s. Segregation was still legal. Separate bathrooms. All of it. She left the South at the age of 13, seeking equality and opportunity. I think about her a lot … I think about what she made possible for me and maybe what I’m supposed to make possible for others. She left South Carolina because of the racial divide. I came back with a hope to bridge it.
I also know what me coaching here symbolizes in light of history. When I walk around different neighborhoods in this city, I’ll hear Black people say, “I had never been on that campus before coming to your game.” I understand that my success isn’t about championships — it’s about bringing together people who were once, and in some ways still are, divided. It’s bigger than basketball.
If I never won another championship but my legacy was that — to have changed the face of opportunity and united communities — I’d take that over most other things in this world.” #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/yERt6HgnzX
