I took Wynton's brother Mboya off the intro as he's not a notable musician like the rest. If the consensus is to list all brothers, there is also another brother not previously included, Ellis III, who is not a notable musician. Musicandnintendo (talk) 14:36, 17 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

How is this unique or any kind of achievement? Every major artist has likely performed on every continent except Antartica. There is no reason for this to be here. Oats11 (talk) 04:12, 14 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Done – agreed; it is a pretty silly claim. We have aeroplanes: there aren't that many continents; there are lots of international artists. I've taken it out and replaced it with a quote from the same piece equating him with Bernstein. I felt this made more sense, though I am not deeply committed to that whole paragraph, and would be interested to see what others would make of it.
