This performance is all about celebrating the joyful, uplifting spirit that has made this style of jazz a welcomed sound and rhythm for our city’s vibrant cultural landscape.
Mark your calendars for Sunday, March 9 at 3 pm and get ready to tap your toes, clap along, and experience an afternoon of soulful swing that honors one of jazz’s most influential voices. We can’t wait to share this memorable musical journey with you.
