Marsalis's Blues Symphony Is, In Fact, Finished: Copyist In response to a report that the thrice-postponed premiere of the piece was due to Wynton Marsalis's creative block, the composer's primary copyist writes, "I have the full score of the
Blues Symphony complete with all seven movements. The piece is not being played in it's [
sic] entirety because of a lack of rehearsal time, not because the piece has not been finished."
