Jazz, its origins and the show
What does freedom sound like? In New Orleans, Louisiana, that question was answered more than a century ago? When jazz was created. With African, European and Caribbean influences fused together, and with blues and ragtime as triggers, a music emerged that broke rules, embraced improvisation and turned every performance into an open dialogue between the audience and the musicians. It is here, between syncopated rhythms, unpredictable solos and that indomitable spirit, that jazz stopped being just music and became the voice of those who had a story to tell.
In “We call it Jazz”, this legacy revives with every note and every sound in a bar that evokes the old streets of the Mississippi city. It will be under the warm light of the spotlights and with a cocktail in hand, when the talent of the artists will envelop you in the classics of the genre and moments of pure improvisation. This is jazz without filters, straight to the soul, as an invitation to live its purest beat, and without leaving CDMX!
