'16-17 SEASON THEME: KEEPING TIME AND PLACE:Jazz Cities in History

If 'jazz' means anything at all , which is questionable, it means the same thing it meant to musicians fifty years ago- freedom of expression. I used to have a definition, but I don't think I have one anymore, unless it is that it is a music with an African foundation which came out of an american environment. - Duke Ellington
