LOUIS: The New York Story

This year marks the 400th anniversary of New York City being founded, and the Louis Armstrong House Museum wants to join the celebration by highlighting stories of Louis in New York. This presentation will gather vital archival material of memorable performances in important venues of the city such as Carnegie Hall, The Town Hall, and The Apollo, as well as historic concerts, including an appearance with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Leonard Bernstein.

We will revisit both iconic spaces and places that no longer exist, bringing back their valuable play in the history of the city.

Finally, some stories recollecting pinnacle recording sessions will be enlightening when painting a portrait of the Artist and his relationship with music itself and other musicians.

Join us on September 13th at 1:00pm for a free session. Reserve your spot today!
