Book Festival: The Jazz Men: Larry Tye in conversation with Aidan Levy

From the New York Times bestselling author of Satchel and Bobby Kennedy, a sweeping and spellbinding portrait of the longtime kings of jazz-Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie-who, born within a few years of one another, overcame racist exclusion and violence to become the most popular entertainers on the planet. Tye will be joined in conversation by Aidan Levy, author of Saxophone Colossus: The Life and Music of Sonny Rollins, for an engaging discussion on jazz, history, and the enduring impact of these musical pioneers. Featuring a Special Performance : Enjoy a live performance by a Special Ensemble from Hall High School's Concert Jazz Band, fresh off their first-place win at the 2025 Charles Mingus Competition!
