The Nashville Jazz Orchestra (NJO), in partnership with the Blair School of Music at Vanderbilt University, presents Fat Tuesday, Phat Jazz, in the Martha Rivers Ingram Center for the Performing Arts.

This celebration of Mardi Gras features the 18-piece orchestra, who journey though the swinging sounds of earliest to present New Orleans jazz. The eclectic program is influenced by the styles of jazz pioneers like Louis Armstrong and Sidney Bechet, as well as contemporary New Orleans groups like The Dirty Dozen Brass Band and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.

Acclaimed trumpeter Rod McGaha joins the NJO as a special guest artist. He has played with a wide range of artists, both in studio and on tour, including Lou Rawls, Kenny Rogers, Bebe and Cece Winans and The O’Jays. McGaha has released a number of albums, including The Trumpet Sounds, which was nominated for a Dove Award. His current release is A Gentle Man.

Note: Tickets available at the Blair Box Office night of show only, payable by cash or check.
