#DidYouKnow the BCAE first offered Friday Frolics in the 1930s? We’re kicking it old school with a series of free Friday activities inspired by the BCAE’s inaugural year (1933)!
When Duke Ellington’s “Sophisticated Lady” was first introduced in 1933, the composer/pianist/bandleader was already at the top of an amazing career that would span more than 50 years. Come to the BCAE as we listen and discuss some of his greatest hits that contributed to the evolution of jazz in America.
