The History of Jazz Music
11:00 AM
The Jazz Age trend continues at the Dwyer Center with a Jazzy talk by Joel Keller on “The History of Jazz Music.” Born in America, jazz can be seen as a reflection of cultural diversity and individualism. At its core are openness to all influences and personal expression through improvisation. From its origins and evolution through the 20th and into the 21st century, we will learn about jazz artists and their music. But mainly, we will listen to the sensational music from New Orleans to Kansas City to both coasts whose influence has spread worldwide! Free; RSVP to 835-6565.
