Jazz at the Cotton Club
Harlem's Cotton Club opened its doors to jazz from 1923 to 1940. Launching the careers of Jimmie Lunceford, Cab Calloway, Duke Ellington, and many others, this uptown cabaret was instrumental in providing a home base for orchestras cultivating the fabric of modern music. SJMO features music from these legendary big bands including "The Mooche" by Duke Ellington and Irving Mills; "Harlem Camp Meeting" by Harry White and Cab Calloway; and "Organ Grinder’s Swing" by Will Hudson, Mitchell Parish, and Irving Mills.
