<p>Known as a melting pot of cultures and sounds, New Orleans is a jubilant city full of life. A city where European horns met with African drums in the late 1880s, earning its place in history as the birthplace of Jazz. A city where music is the heartbeat of the people and embedded into the fabric of everyday life. Set to Robert Bradley's song, appropriately titled, "New Orleans," join us as we explore this rich city that has influenced not only the United States, but the world.</p>
