​
Within the confines of Congo Square, on the outskirts of the French Quarter,
jazz was born. A celebration of music and a melting pot of cultural influence,
jazz soon spread throughout Crescent City. Percussive counter-melodies,
raucous glissandi, and joyous growls from a tailgate trombone were often
the harbinger of an incoming parade. And in the bayou, parades are plentiful! Trombonist and Winnipeg expatriate Chris Butcher and trombonist
​Al Kay from Humber College in Toronto join the WJO for our season opener.
