Academy Students Rehearse with Sun Ra Arkestra

In late April, members of Sun Ra Arkestra rehearsed with Trombone Shorty Academy students in advance of their performance at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. They shared the stage on Sunday, April 28 at the Oschner Children’s Tent at the Fairgrounds, and also played an iconic show at the historic newly renovated Dew Drop Inn later that night. Seeing and hearing these multi-generations of musical talent was one of the highlights of our Jazz Fest season!
