Listening & Archival Session: Celebrating the Hot Five 100th Anniversary

Date: November 8, 2025
Time: 1:00 PM
Location: Jerry’s Place, Louis Armstrong Center

Join us for a special Listening and Archival Session honoring the 100th anniversary of Louis Armstrong’s legendary Hot Five recordings — with a spotlight on the incredible contributions of Lil Hardin.

We’ll explore rare archival material, vintage press clippings, and of course, spin original recordings that changed the course of jazz history. This session is part musical celebration, part deep dive into Armstrong’s early innovations and the groundbreaking collaboration with Lil Hardin.

Free and open to the public
Music lovers, historians, and curious minds all welcome!
