If you couldn’t make it up to the Newport Jazz Festival 50th Anniversary celebration last summer you can still take in the sensational event the Boston Phoenix referred to as “a Hurricane of Good Music"! From legends like Dave Brubeck playing his famed “Take Five", and Herbie Hancock to young lions like James Carter blazing out “Diminuendo and Crescendo in Blue", and Branford Marsalis, the Newport Jazz Festival 1954-2004 50th Anniversary captures the excitement of this unforgettable commemoration.

“Every where you turned there was great music by high-caliber jazz artists at the 2004 edition of the JVC Newport Jazz Festival to celebrate its 1954 beginnings." ~ All About Jazz
