Emily Asher’s Garden Party

Sunday, October 14, 2018 - 2:00 to 4:30 p.m.

Looking Ahead: Original Cornell Syncopators

Emily Asher's Garden Party is a versatile musical ensemble led by Asher's tenacious trombone and sweet vocals. Called "red hot" and "very exciting" by the Wall Street Journal, this band of all-stars from New York City's vibrant early jazz scene performs coast to coast and internationally from the finest jazz clubs to the busiest swing dance halls. Drawing on the repertoire of Louis Armstrong's enchanting Hot Fives and Duke Ellington's sophisticated melodies to the funky and soulful music of New Orleans brass bands, Garden Party delights audiences of all ages and musical tastes, creating fresh growth from vintage roots.
