Jazz Age Jukebox - History of Memphis Music (VIRTUAL)

  • Date: 10/06/2020 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM  

In partnership with Creative Aging, each session is led by talented local artists. Creativity enhances seniors’ sense of control, offers social engagement, enhances physical and mental functioning and improves attitude. All sessions are free and take place virtually on Zoom, unless otherwise noted. For more information or to register, contact Teresa Martin at 901-757-7375 or tmartin@germantown-tn.gov.

Instructor: Christian Stanfield
Turn back the hands of time to 1929—or to any year or genre of music between 1900 and 1950!  DJ Christian Stanfield will come out with his “jazz age jukebox”—a pair of hand wound, fully acoustic Victrola phonographs and a stack of records.  Between songs he will tell stories and illustrate the history of American recording technology and the development of American musical genres.
