Craving the feeling of being at a live concert? In its absence, feed your soul with this joyous portrait of New Orleans’ music scene, the town that produced such jazz icons as Louis Armstrong, Fats Domino and Mahalia Jackson. Hosted by six-time Grammy winner Terence Blanchard, Up From the Streets charts the musical evolution of the Crescent City, from the drumming by African slaves and free people of colour in Congo Square to the birth of jazz and the explosion of styles that can still be heard today. Reflecting the culture and times in which it was created, the New Orleans sound became a powerful expression of the joys and sorrows of life—one that continues to carry the torch of a liberating voice into the future.
The film will be available for 48 hours from when you start the stream. Please note streaming is only possible from inside Canada.
