An Afternoon of Jazz on Saturday, February 2, 2013 from 2 p. m. to 4 p. m. at the Zion Union Heritage Museum, 276 North Street, Hyannis.
Author Mick Carlon will speak about his most recent book, Travels with Louis,
a warm-hearted story of Louis Armstrong and 12-year-old Fred, who
learns about jazz—and life—from the great musician himself. Mr. Carlon
is a regular contributor to Jazz Times magazine and the author of Riding on Duke’s Train, the critically acclaimed novel about Duke Ellington.
The afternoon session will also feature performances by jazz
clarinetist Paul Nossiter & Friends. On July 4, 1957, Mr. Nossiter,
along with Newport Jazz Festival founder George Wein, opened the Harwich
Port jazz club Storyville with Louis Armstrong and Phyllis Diller as headliners.
Additionally, Jack Bradley, Louis Armstrong’s Road Manager &
Photographer, will be our Very Special Guest and John Reed, President of
The Zion Union Heritage Museum, will serve up Soul Food.
