Wynton says, "When putting together this interpretation of We Three Kings, I had the traditional New Orleans ensemble in mind. But here the clarinet is replaced by the soprano. So the trumpet carries the melody, the soprano the obligato, and the trombone the tailgate lower harmony part. Those are the three kings. I have a little Spanish tinge section in there that Jelly Roll Morton might like. It sits in for the Orient."
