星期一夜晚的爵士樂系列及大哈特福特的爵士樂節
地方性遺產

假如您在夏日的星期一夜晚,來到
康乃狄克州的哈特福特,您可以參加國內歷史最悠久,且仍在進行中的爵士樂系列。照片中的小孩正在為星期一夜晚的爵士樂系列進行練習,或者以爵士樂術語表示,她正在「即興演出」

當太陽落下,星星升上天際後,您就可以聽到哈特福特的布什內爾公園內,星期一夜晚的爵士樂系列中,傳出美國獨有的爵士樂曲。享譽全國及全球的知名音樂家,還有具天份的當地音樂家,都會出席這個夏日演奏會系列,一同歡慶各式各樣的爵士音樂;各個等級的表演者都會參加此一系列的音樂盛事,從一流水準的藝術家,到來自在地學校的年青演奏者。

1966年開始,在布什內爾公園內舉行的演奏會,是由自願者所統籌策辦。創始於1991年的大哈特福特的爵士樂節,是一個為期一個週末的免費表演,它是由星期一夜晚的爵士樂系列的組織者所發起,旨在紀念星期一夜晚的爵士樂系列滿25週年。


If you were to go to Hartford, Connecticut, on a Monday night in the summer, you could attend the oldest continually running jazz series in the country. The kids you see in this photo are practicing, or in jazz lingo, jamming, for the Monday Night Jazz Series.

As the sun goes down and the stars come out, you can listen to the uniquely American musical form of jazz at the Monday Night Jazz Series in Bushnell Park, in Hartford. This summer concert series presents nationally and internationally renowned musicians as well as local talent in celebration of all kinds of jazz music. Many levels of performers -- from cutting-edge artists to youth from local schools -- take part in the series.

Run by volunteers, the series has been held in Bushnell Park since 1966. The Greater Hartford Festival of Jazz, a weekend of free performances, was initiated in 1991by the organizers of the Monday Night Jazz Series, in honor of its 25th anniversary.
