"Jazz is not just music, it's a way of life, it's a way of being, a way of thinking." — Nina Simone
Jazz was born in the late 19th century, blooming from the streets of New Orleans into a global language of freedom. It’s built on the "blue note," swing, and the magic of a collective conversation between musicians who might not know where the song is going, but know exactly how to get there.
