Blue Note New York is the Greenwich Village jazz club that spawned a global jazz empire. Both jazz legends and up-and-comers perform. You never know who might be sitting in, or sitting next to you. It’s that kind of place. The Blue Note Jazz Festival is a New York June tradition.
Thank you Blue Note Entertainment for sponsoring Latin jazz in New York City!
