3RD ANNUAL
HAITIAN SUMMER JAZZ FESTIVAL
SATURDAY, AUGUST 28, 2010 @ 7:00 PM

The Haitian Summer Jazz Festival?
From 1895, the date that North American jazz was created in New Orleans to March 2008, there was not such a thing as Haitian Jazz Show on the airwave (as far as we know). On March 16, 2008, DJ K (Kedner Stiven) has decided to put together a radio show he baptized as "Jazz Creole" broadcasted weekly on a local New York Radio station. He received enormous supports and encouragements. To promote, expose and encourage this movement, DJ K has launched the first Annual Haitian Summer Jazz festival held on Sunday August 17, 2008. Now comes the 3rd Annual Haitian Jazz Festival on August 28, 2010. A superb Jazz event that no one will want to miss.

Featuring: Buyu Ambroise, Doudou Chancy, Makarios Cesaire, Boulo Valcourt Marc Mathelier, Chardavoine, Mario Devolcy, Serge Stiven - After party with: Chale Mizik (Full Kompa Band)
