Description
Bayou Manouche
Saturday at 2:00 pm
At the National Park Service French Quarter Visitor Center
419 Decatur St, New Orleans
Bayou Manouche is a New Orleans Gypsy Jazz band playing a range of up-tempo hot jazz, Bal-musettes (originally, a stylized French waltz) and lively swing instrumental and vocal standards. We are influenced by the music of Django Reinhardt and Stephan Grappelli, who were creating a new and distinctive sound in Europe in the 1930’s. This music has remained fresh and alive, and is experiencing a resurgence in popularity in New Orleans and around the world.
This program is free and open to the public.
