Afternoon of Jazz

I just wanted to share some pictures of a very nice and intimate jazz concert Katie and I were invited to attend this afternoon. The ensemble featured a collection of musicians led by Victor Goines who is the Artistic Director of Jazz Studies at The Juilliard School in New York and accompanied by the directors of jazz studies at Emory University, Florida State and New Orleans University and vocals by Mrs. Kemba Cofield. Victor Goines also performs with his mentor Ellis Marsalis and his son Wynton Marsalis in New York and New Orleans and all over the world.

The music was rich and full of culture giving sounds that were contemporary and also brought you back to Lou Rawls, Billie Holiday, Nina Simone and Duke Ellington.
