Preservation Hall Jazz Band at the JVC Jazz Festival & Big River Concert Celebrates New Orleans in Chicago

New Orleans' traditional jazz band blends old and young music that's
serious and jubilant at a picnic in New York. Then Don Vappie -- banjo
picker, singer and purveyor of Creole culture -- joins Ellis Marsalis,
Nicholas Payton, Victor Goines and more to raise spirits (and funds)
after Hurricane Katrina, at Chicago Symphony Center.
