LISTEN: LOUIS ARMSTRONG JAZZ AT MCNY

Monday, April 29th, 6:30PM-8:30PM, Ain't Misbehavin': How Louis Armstrong Conquered New York at Museum of the City of New York, 104th Street and Fifth Avenue.   Louis Armstrong arrived in New York City in 1929 relatively unknown but left less than a year later a sensation. In celebration of International Jazz Day, historian Ricky Riccardi of the Louis Armstrong House Museum offers a rare glimpse of Armstrong’s meteoric rise to stardom during the Harlem Renaissance from his first performances at the legendary nightclub Connie’s Inn to his stint in the Broadway revue Connie's Hot Chocolates.  Live performance by the Louis Armstrong Eternity Band ends the evening.  More details and online tickets at the museum site: LINK
