Celebrate Mardi Gras early with Northern Virginia’s own Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra in
Carnival Celebration: Music from New Orleans to Rio to the Islands. Dress up in your Mardi
Gras beads, don a mask, and enjoy a lively night of pulsating rhythms, upbeat parade brass, and
plenty of improvisational jazz. Our tour guides for this concert will be George Mason
University’s very own Mason Jazz Faculty: Professor Graham Breedlove from Lafayette,
Louisiana; Argentinian Dr. Juan Megna by way of Sao Paulo, Brazil; and Professor Victor
Provost, born and raised in St. John, Virgin Islands. Led by Founder, Artistic Director, and
virtuoso saxophonist Jim Carroll, the Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra comprises the most
remarkable jazz performers in the metro region.
Ages: This performance is appropriate for all ages.
Hylton Performing Arts Center is at 10960 George Mason Circle, Manassas, VA.
