Carnival Time

It's Carnival time and today is Mardi Gras day. 

Today's video is not jazz. Instead it's what Miles Davis referred to in a recent video interview we posted with him as "social music."

The video was made to promote and support a cultural exchange between New Orleans and the north of England, specifically the hyper-musical cities of Liverpool and Manchester. 

I call the piece Trans-Atltanic mix.
