Jazz Appreciation Month
& Jazz Fest 2015
Jazz Appreciation Month (JAM) was
created in 2002 to herald and celebrate the
extraordinary heritage and history of jazz
and its importance as an American cultural
art form.
Through local and national jazz fans
everywhere, JAM is intended to stimulate
the current jazz scene and encourage
people of all ages to participate in jazz: to
study the music, attend concerts, listen to
jazz on radio and recordings, read books
about jazz, and support institutional jazz
programs.
Join us in celebrating JAM this April! Feel
free to browse around the JAM website
www.smithsonianjazz.org to find the best
way for you to celebrate and participate in
Jazz.

And consider attending the 46th Annual
New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, aka
Jazz Fest, a 10 day cultural feast in which
thousands of musicians, cooks and crafts
people welcome 400,000 visitors each year.
The Louisiana Heritage Fair showcases
unforgettable music on multiple stages, delicious Louisiana cuisine in two
large food areas, and crafts artisans from the region and around the world
demonstrating and selling their work. For more information about Jazz Fest,

world’s concert stages. In his hands the humble “little guitar” sings everything from J.S.
Bach to the Beatles. This week, Shimabukuro performs Somewhere Over the Rainbow and
joins host Feinstein for a duet of Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah.
John Pizzarelli
With his swinging and sophisticated style, guitarist/singer Pizzarelli makes music that
sounds both classic and modern. On this 2001 Piano Jazz, McPartland and John team up
for I Got Rhythm and his brother, bassist Martin Pizzarelli, joins in for It’s Only a Paper Moon.
Carmen McRae
Vocalist McRae (1920–94) was an expert of rhythm, deft phrasing, and personal, bittersweet
ballads. Her enigmatic, dark contralto voice placed her among the pantheon of female jazz
singers. On this 1985 Piano Jazz, McRae sings As Long as I Live and Carmen’s Blues.

Composer/arranger/pianist Mancini (1924–94) penned some of the most memorable tunes

her career, and Henry’s remarkable contributions to American film, television, and song.

traditional and contemporary styles of jazz, and he and McPartland challenge each other in
inventive duets, and Cowell performs his famous composition Euqipoise.
4/29 Shirley Horn
Jazz musicians have long admired pianist/vocalist Horn's (1934–2005) sensitive, relaxed
playing style and unique vocals that earned her comparisons to fellow jazz greats such as
Basie and Nat King Cole. In this 1995 Piano Jazz Horn performs Wouldn’t It Be Lovely.
