A Taste Of Jazz
A BETTER LIFE
This country came about on the backs of its immigrants. From the English who arrived in search of riches and religious freedom, the Irish who came looking for a steady meal, then Scandinavians, Italians, Germans, Middle Europeans and boatloads more, all who heard the good news and came in search of a better life. What they brought with them to Ellis Island, besides a “carry all” and the clothes on their back, included their languages and their music.
