Jazz at the Players
The Harlem Blues and Jazz Band
November 16, 2011

The Harlem Blues and Jazz Band is the world’s most authentic swing bands. It stars veteran jazz and blues musicians (64 to 93 years old) whose roots reach to the classic period of the 20s and 30s. Together since 1973, these “originals” actually did “jump” at the Woodside and “stomp” at the Savoy, with Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, Count Basie, Lionel Hampton, “Fats” Waller, Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday and other jazz greats. Come experience the sounds that made jazz a popular art form in the 20th century!
