SUMMARY:Sunday Jazz at The World Stage
DESCRIPTION:Billy Higgins believed jazz had to be taught in a room where people lived. So he and Kamau Daáood opened The World Stage in 1989 in Leimert Park Village — the heart of Black Los Angeles — and Higgins played there until the year he died. The room is still there. The drums are still there. Once a month\, fourth Sunday of every month\, three to five in the afternoon\, the Leimert Park Jazz Festival puts together a showcase of the best emerging jazz instrumentalists and vocalists in LA. Some of them have been gigging for thirty years. Some have been gigging for thirty months. There's an open jam at the end where anyone with their horn out gets to play. Ten dollars at the door for musicians\, fifteen for everyone else. The room holds about a hundred. The walls have photographs of every master who ever played there. Doors at 2:30. Music at three. Leimert Park on a Sunday afternoon is one of the very few places left where you can hear jazz being made by the people who learned it from the people who invented it.
