ABOUT

Jazz is a uniquely American art form, born in the early decades of the 20th Century. This music formed as the result of a collision of cultures that include African American, Spanish, French Acadian, Creole, and Western musical cultures. In the 115 years since, jazz has developed many different styles that all stem from its ancestral beginnings in New Orleans. Come and experience the sights, sounds, and tastes of New Orleans in the Beautiful French Quarter, the cradle of jazz. This wonderful tour is designed to acquaint participants with the history, cuisine, jazz, and ecology of this beautiful region, where jazz was born and is still thriving today!
