A Jazz Story: Pennsylvania Ave.
$2,000.00
This assembly tells the story of the Great Migration through the evolution of Jazz. Beginning in the Gullah islands with the Charleston, the journey moves through the ragtime sounds of Eubie Blake and into Baltimore’s rich musical legacy with artists like Billie Holiday and Cab Calloway. Participants explore how music carried culture, stories, and movement as African American communities traveled north.
This performance can be paired with dance classes for your community in Lindy Hop, Tap and/or Vernacular Jazz.
