Hungry March Band marches to the Urban Meadow
In the Spring of 2008 the Cabrini GREEN Urban Meadow, a church back in the day and for years a rubble heap, opened up as a new NYC Park/Community Garden. Last year we had our first jazz show in the Urban Meadow, which was a part of the VISION-FEST bringing jazz to many of the city's community gardens. The Meadow participated with three bands participating.
The new Cabrini GREEN Urban Meadow will be having free jazz shows every Sunday in June, which we’re calling “Jazz in June”. All the jazz shows will be free and open to the public. Families are encouraged to bring their friends and have a picnic in the Meadow. Parents are encouraged to bring their children!
*The Cabrini Green Urban Meadow is a new green space along the future route of the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway. It is the result of a successful collaboration between the NYC Department of Parks & Recreation and the Brooklyn Borough President, in conjunction with the design teams from XS Space and Balmori Associates. It is now under the volunteers. Free yoga classes will be offered in the Spring and Summer and the Urban Meadow will be opening soon, open everyday from the Spring until late Fall.

Un balèti américano-marseillais autour du roman de Claude Mc Kay «Banjo», né de la rencontre exceptionnelle entre Moussu T e Lei Jovents (La Ciotat – Provence) et Arlee Leonard (New York - USA) accompagnés par le jaz ciotaden.
L’histoire de la rencontre entre la musique Noire américaine et celle de Marseille et la Provence, pour pouvoir revisiter les sonorités de l’époque dans les deux pays et essayer de comprendre les télescopages musicaux qui ont marqué la création artistique contemporaine.
Zou, Shake That Thing! est une création originale dont l’intention est claire : se réapproprier l’héritage musical, le faire découvrir au grand public, tout en s’engageant dans la nouveauté.
