The Blues and Early Jazz

October 19, 2024 By Alexis Starke

Join us on Sunday, October 27th, from 3:00 – 4:00 pm for a very special program with Eric DiVito- The Blues and Early Jazz. The first part of the multi part performance/lecture series, The History and Evolution of Jazz in the 20th Century Through Performance, this session will focus on the origins of Jazz. Specific focus will be on the roots of jazz that go back to the music of Africa and Europe with the development of the Blues and then early jazz that originated in New Orleans in the beginning of the 20th century.  Special attention will be paid to the role of the music from a cultural and historical standpoint.

This project is made possible with funds from ArtsAlive, a regrant program of the ArtsWestchester with support from the office of the Governor, the New York State Legislator, and the New York Council on The Arts.
