Wynton Marsalis On music and the Americans:

“'Me vs. You' and 'Us vs. Y'all' – vs. 'All of Us' – remains the struggle at the heart of humankind and the central debate of our Constitution. How do we achieve a common ground when individual victories are so much more valued? This conundrum has been resolved harmoniously in our musical arts for more than a century. Under the vibrant din of our democracy, on the lower frequencies, sonic metaphors speak to and for us all. What they tell us about what it means to be American could serve us well in these divisive and uncivil times.”

Cannonball Adderley, "Somethin' Else."

The 90s Donkey Kong cartoon is a guilty pleasure of mine. Currently listening to my favorite it's many musicals number (two per episode, on average).
