While
New Orleans may boast that it is the "birthplace of jazz,"
New York City's borough of Queens has its own proud claim:
it has been the "home of jazz," the residence of choice for
hundreds of the music's leading players. The award winning
Queens Jazz Trail map (originally commissioned by Flushing
Town Hall) shows the different neighborhoods and sites that
are part of this hidden jazz history. Featuring portraits
of jazz greats and drawings of their houses, this pictorial
map makes a beautiful poster. The back of the map contains
a short history of jazz in Queens; the addresses of homes
once occupied by jazz musicians; and sites of current interest
to jazz fans. |
