Program Description

Event Details

Join Marilyn Carminio for a multimedia presentation about Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald, two of the greatest musicians in the history of the 20th century. Each performing over 300 concerts a year, they shared in common dazzling artistry, an optimism for life, and a desire to make people happy through their music. Despite their impoverished origins and the oppression of the Jim Crow south, they grew to become cultural icons who continue to hold a special place in the hearts of music lovers everywhere. Jazz is a uniquely American art form “born” in New Orleans. Its originators were primarily African Americans giving it an important place in our cultural history. This lively presentation will showcase the lives and music of Louis and Ella, both individually and together. Come and swing to the joy that is Louis and Ella!
