Come and relive the high-stepping, fun-loving nights of the 1920's Tour the neighborhood with one of our professional city guides and learn about Harlemís role in the history of jazz and the roles of its noted jazz musicians in giving New York its musical edge. See the site of the original Cotton Club, where Duke Ellington and Lena Horne spent hours wowing crowds from around the world. Drive past the site of the Savoy Ballroom where Benny Goodman and Chick Webb fought it out during their Battle of the Bands and where the Charleston, Lindy Hop and the Big Apple dances were firmly cemented into American culture. See the world-famous Apollo Theater, where Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald won the popular Amateur Night, which still boasts standing room only audiences every Wednesday night. Pass by the Lincoln Theater, where Fats Waller passion underscored Vaudeville shows, and Minton's Playhouse, where bebop was born and where Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, and Thelonious Monk started the tradition of jam sessions. Discover one of Harlem's hottest clubs, where jam sessions can go on into the wee hours of the morning. On Mondays, swing dance the night away to the beat of a terrific, twelve-piece band for almost two hours. (Free dance lesson included!) On Thursdays and Saturdays, experience the essence of Harlem and enjoy the convivial atmosphere as you mingle freely with the locals while enjoying the sounds of a jazz or rythm & blues band. (We pick up the tab for your first two cocktails!) On the way to the music, you'll dine at Sylvias legendary restaurant---famous for its soul-moving soul food. So forget the A Train. Join us for a great night out in Harlem. |
