The show ran until around 10:00, which was longer than I had expected, but we were quite pleased. They played pieces by the band members, but ended with the Duke Ellington tune &#8220;It Don&#8217;t Mean a Thing (If It Ain&#8217;t Got That Swing)&#8221; which I really like (although my brain kept wanting to hear Ella Fitzgerald).<\/p>\n<p>I decided at some point last night, that we should watch try to catch more live jazz, because jazz players are really a lot of fun to watch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Branford Marsalis played in Morgantown last night.
