Preservation Hall maintains the bridge between the present day and the earliest foundations of New Orleans Jazz, embodying the joyful, timeless spirit of a true American art form. Sharing the stage for the first time ever, two of America's great cultural ambassadors bring together the joy of Gospel with the soul of New Orleans and promise an unforgettable evening for audiences everywhere.
