As a "transplanted" Manhattanite who lived on Broadway and 91st Street, it's great to see the network of talent via jazz flowing between Broadway and Mesa that may appear to be worlds apart.
Yeh, Jazz > Mesa'a got Jazz.

"We don't just play jazz - we teach it, we write it, we dance it, we sing it, we present it, we photograph it, we film it, we produce it, we archive it, we record it, we broadcast it, we commission it, we celebrate it, we love it, we share it." -- Wynton Marsalis, Managing and Artistic Director, Jazz at Lincoln Center.
