Season 3 Mardi Gras Kick-off
Episode 81
Wednesday, 11 February, 2026

The Jazz Evensong Quintet continues its tradition of kicking off a new season with a celebration of traditional jazz. New Orleans is widely considered the birthplace of jazz music, and this style is still universally admired and practiced throughout the world. Devotees of such artists as Louis Armstrong, Sidney Bechet, King Oliver, Jelly Roll Morton, Bix Beiderbecke and many others, are still inspired to emulate their accomplishments in this style to this day. Such groups as Tuba Skinny, The Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and the Rebirth Brass Band are testament to the vitality of this music.
