Description
Funerals with music have been seen in several countries for centuries but the Jazz Funeral is unique to New Orleans. This program gives a thorough look at the rich and colorful development of a tradition that has become an icon of the Crescent City. Hosted and narrated by Milton Batiste, Jr. the late trumpet player/manager of Dejan's Olympia Brass Band, "Jazz Funerals from the Inside" tells of this fascinating celebration of death from the perspective of musicians, family and scholars. The program was given the highest rating by the New Orleans Times-Picayune and has been a local PBS staple for membership drives since 1995.
