Thanks for the link. I saw some it on ABC last night, but this is the whole event.
Jazz, an art form originated in USA. How appropriate to have this form of music highlighted at the White House. So great to have International Jazz Day at the White House. What a historic event!!!
I assure you, no other President would have brought this event to the White House! Thank you President Obama and First Lady
