A-one and a-two and a-you know what to do...!
Come on down and swing along with the best ragtime, stride, and jazz musicians in town.

Upper Terrace (at the base of the William Cullen Bryant Statue behind the New York Public Library)

This special performance will be part of our AAPI Heritage Month Celebration.

Featuring Kuni Mikami (piano), Tammy Huynh (vocal), Peter Lin (trombone), Marty Kenney (bass), and Hiroyuki Matsuura (drums)

 

Born in Tokyo, Japan, Kuni Mikami came to the United States in 1974 where he has been playing for many of the top big-bands ever since. Bands like Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway. Illinois Jacquet, and the New Lionel Hampton Orchestra to name but a few. 

Thank you for the music!

Many thanks to Sam Ash Music Stores for their support through the years.
